Decluttering toys can be a rewarding process! Here are some helpful tips to make it easier:
1. Set a Goal: Decide how many toys you want to keep, donate, or discard. This will give you a clear target. 2. Involve Your Kids: If possible, include your children in the process. Explain why it’s important to declutter and let them help decide which toys to keep. 3. Sort by Category: Group similar toys together (e.g., stuffed animals, building blocks, games). This will help you see how much you have and make it easier to decide. 4. Use the One-Year Rule: If a toy hasn’t been played with in the last year, consider letting it go. 5. Create a “Keep” Box: Designate a box for toys that are special or have sentimental value. Limit the size of this box to avoid keeping too many. 6. Set Up a Donation Box: Keep a box handy for toys that are in good condition but no longer played with. Donate them to a local charity or shelter. 7. Check for Duplicates: If you have multiple of the same toy, consider keeping just one or two. 8. Rotate Toys: If your kids have a lot of toys, consider rotating them. Keep some out for play and store others away for a few months. 9. Make it Fun: Turn decluttering into a game. Set a timer and see how many toys can be sorted in that time.
