Clean-Up Time

Sometimes it’s all about the simplest things. Whenever we’re struggling, it’s great to go back to basics. So in an effort to keep it super simple, here are some easy ideas that kids love. Most of all, they will appreciate spending a little time together 💙

Time to give away some of your child’s clothes? For each item, hold it up and ask them, “Is this too small for you or does it fit?” Make a pile to keep and one to give away or resell. Talk back and forth about your memories and what younger child might like to have this now.

This task helps you clean up but it also helps your child develop the skill of making connections—between whether their clothes are too small or still fit. Recalling the past develops their ability to remember and also develops their sense of their own history.
