How I Got My Kids to Clean Up Their Toys
When my kids were small, I made a social media post about how frustrated I was with all the toy clutter in my home.
Some of my friends suggested toy rotation, but in a small house sometimes that is not an option.
Some recommended that I ask my kids to donate some toys, but my kids were so attached to their toys that they could barely part with any.
When I tried to hide some toys to see if they noticed they were missing, they'd always somehow realize that toy was gone and I'd end up giving it back.
What did I do to turn things around to save my sanity?
I wrote a book about how toys don't like to be left alone and uncared for all over the floor!
If the toys felt unloved, they would leave and find help at The Underground Toy Society where lost, lonely, and forgotten toys go to find new homes.
After I wrote the book and read it to my two daughters, they began to realize that their toys wanted to be loved and not forgotten.
The story inspired them to donate a few of their toys to kids who did not have as many.
They started to clean up a lot better once they realized their toys might leave in hopes of a better home where they wouldn't be thrown all over the floor and forgotten!
