I’ve been doing chore lists with my kids for about 3 years now. I really liked the Chore Stick method for when they were younger and they needed my help with most things (like maybe even reading the chore stick when they were really little!). Lists are just so good for older kids who can […]

Tour the Girls’ Bathroom
Today I am going to give you a little tour of my girls’ bathroom. We are lucky enough to have four bathrooms, and this is the third one I’ve shown on the blog. (You can see my Master Bathroom HERE or The Green Bathroom Here.) One of these days I’ll show you the little powder […]
Tour the Girls’ Clubhouse
When I showed how my three girls share a bedroom a few weeks ago (see their bedroom HERE), I mentioned how we shuffled around the bedrooms a little while ago to give my tween girls a hangout place in the house. We have the three girls close in age, and then a much younger brother. […]
Tour my Playroom-Family Room-Movie Theatre (all-in-one room)
Our playroom doubles as our family room, and sometimes even a little home movie theatre. As our kids grow older, I expect to change the look and feel of this room quite a bit. It definitely fits us now, though, and that is what matters. The organizing in this room is very simple and that […]
Boy’s Room Tour
A few year’s ago I shared my little boy’s nursery with you. It is still similar with some adjustments. {See his nursery here.} He had just turned 1 at the time and it honestly blows my mind that he just turned 3 last month. He is still my baby! I imagine I’ll still feel that […]
3 Girls’ Shared Bedroom {Tour!}
We chose a home with plenty of bedrooms, and it is a good thing, because we have lots of uses for them! When we moved into this home, each of the three girls had their own room, and then when we made room for a nursery a few years ago, the twins started sharing the larger […]
Guiding Children to Declutter
Children come with all sorts of different organizing pre-sets. I have four children, and they all have a wildly different approach to helping around the house, finishing chores, keeping their own spaces tidy, and getting rid of things they don’t need or want anymore. They all have the same mother and father, and have had […]
FIRST LEGO League: Organizing The Junior Kit
We are LEGO fans in our house, which hasn’t always been the case. When my three girls were younger, I didn’t want to stick to the stereotypes, so we loaded up the playroom with LEGO Duplos and Mega Blocks and attempted to initiate building play. There were a few glimmers of hope, but really, they […]
Organizing The Closet Under The Stairs
WARNING: Too many pictures!!! There is this closet underneath my stairs. It holds all of our games, puzzles, and kid art supplies. Around the corner of the back of the storage closet is where I store our 72-hour emergency kits and a little bit of our long-term emergency food storage. I wanted to organize the […]
Use Hand Soap Dispensers in the Bath Tub!
Are you organizing or decorating your bathrooms this week? While we are focusing on “the most pleasant rooms in our homes”, I thought I’d show you a simple and quick tip for organizing kid’s bathrooms. I don’t know if you have a similar problem, but my kids can go through a bottle of soap or […]
