IKEA Table

IKEA kids room hack for a LEGO table

While this storage system isn't technically a table, all you'd need to do is glue a few base plates to the top of the unit. The colorful bins underneath make a perfect place to stash LEGO bricks, and you can easily buy two or three of these to create a whole LEGO wall! 

Buy it here, $66.99.

Classic

It doesn't get any more classic than a rectangle shape with four LEGO base plates on top. We like the mesh net storage spot in the middle and the fact that there are six different sizes to choose from, depending on the space you have available.

They say a parents’ work is never done and with back to school around the corner that saying will definitely be even more true. In many ways, the end of the work/school day is really just the beginning between making dinner, signing paperwork, monitoring home work, cleaning out backpacks, putting art projects away and gearing up for the next day’s after school activities. And, while we can’t stop the chaos, we can give you a few tips for managing it and answering the school age question—what do I do with all the stuff that comes home after school?

  • Find a Dump Zone: The best way to start taming the chaos is to create a dump zone. It may seem obvious but the fact is that having one area in your home where the kids can put their stuff when they come home from a day at school or play will make a huge difference. If you don’t have one now, create one—preferably near the door they use to get in and out of the house—with (ideally) a bin and a hook for each child to use for their school stuff. This will cut down on the questions about where their things are and should help make wrangling them in the morning go a bit smoother.
  • Storing After School Gear: As kids get older and start doing more after school activities, you need to find a spot for sports gear. Ideally the dump zone (see above) would work for this gear as well but it isn’t always the case particularly in small apartments and as the gear and the kids get bigger. If the gear is too much for a spot near the front door, spend some time finding a spot elsewhere in the home to store it—a shelf at the top of the closet, under the coats in the coat closet, under the bed if that space isn’t claimed yet or even a hook in the hall. Until it has a home it will likely be thrown on the floor and in the way of the rest of the family.
  • Creating a Command Center: A large part of taming the chaos is handling the paperwork coming in from school, from doctors and after-school activities. This is where having your own personal dump zone—a parental command center so to speak—becomes important. A space with a paper tray or hanging file for each member of the family and the supplies you need to deal with it (think pens, stamps, staplers, etc.) so you can keep the paper moving along.
  • Archiving Art: Kid artists can be quite prolific so getting a handle on the art coming into the house on a daily basis can be a job in and of itself. Decisions need to be regularly made on how to display it, store it and archive it. We recommend getting your child involved in the decision making process each week and have them help pick the three pieces of art (or four or two—whatever your preference) that they are going to keep and which are going to be photographed before being removed from the home. Thankfully there are also a plethora of services available now for archiving art so you can create a book that can be referenced down the road. Check out these options for archiving your budding artists greatest hits so you can clear some of the clutter at home: ARTKIVECanvsly, and Art My Kid Made.

You just got rid of your last bag of stuff that didn’t sparky joy à la Marie Kondo, and now your house is a streamlined dream. According to top organizing pros and minimalist gurus, keeping it that way is easier than you might think. Don’t believe us? It’s true. We got the best in the business to offer their favorite simple tips on how to declutter—all you need to do is find an extra five or 10 minutes to make it happen. Keep reading to see them all.

Put your clothes away. 
Houzz contributor and organizing professional Patricia Lee says one of the easiest ways to make sure your house has less clutter is to put your clothes away. Hang them up, put them in the dirty clothes, stash the folded stuff in your drawers. It only takes a couple of minutes at the end of the day, yet it allows you to maintain a clean space.

Finish the quick tasks ASAP.
According to Joshua Becker, author of the best-selling The Minimalist Home, clutter is often a result of procrastination—decisions put off or small jobs left unfinished. His simple rule? “If a job can be completed in less than two minutes, do it now. Take the garbage out, scrub the pot, return the remote control, or place your dirty clothes in the hamper. Every time you see a task all the way to completion, a source of clutter is avoided.”

Get the kids involved.
Joni and Kitt from LA-based organizing firm Practically Perfect suggest getting the rest of your family in on the daily action. "Kids are more than capable of completing a few tasks each day to maintain a tidy home. Placing their shoes into a basket by the door, hanging their backpacks and coats on a hook, tossing their dirty laundry into the proper place... When the right systems are set up, it's easy and fun!"

Make a clean sweep.
Think of all those flat surfaces around the house—the desk, the counter, the table. Cheryl Smith, the owner of Consider It Done, a home organization company, emphasizes how important it is to keep these areas clean. Not only are those surfaces magnets for random stuff that doesn't get put away, but when they are clear, it's easier to clean!

Keep a box at the ready.
One super easy way to deal with clutter as it occurs? Keep a box handy for donations. Natalie Wise, author of The Modern Organic Home: 100+ DIY Cleaning Products, Organization Tips, and Household Hacks, says it’ll be easier to actually get stuff out of your house that way because “as you go about your daily tasks, anything you can purge has a spot to go immediately.”

Stash your stuff.
In theory, open-plan shelving sound incredible. In reality, having to keep it looking like it did in your Pinterest dreams is well, hard. Cleaning pro and entrepreneur of Chore Bliss, Jack Prenter, suggests getting a few storage boxes instead. “On a daily basis, take everything that's on the floor and put them back into the storage box. Rather than having to neatly organize things because they are visible, you can throw them in there and hide them away, saving yourself a huge amount of time.”

Pixaby

Ditch the little things.
Kelly Jane McCann, The Organizing Maven, suggests doing a sweep once a week to get rid of the little things. She says “take 10 minutes to move through your space and remove all the items that are past their useful life. It’s what we call the low hanging fruit—it's the no longer useful, the expired, the broken, and the abandoned. Often these items are just plain rubbish, like empty shampoo bottles left on shower ledge, expired grocery flyers, or packaging left over from mail orders. If you don't take action on these items they quickly become clutter.”

Learn how to multitask.
Sarah Giller Nelson, decluttering pro and owner of Less Is More suggests to do two things at once, like clearing out a kitchen drawer while you are waiting for coffee to brew, or de-cluttering the kids' medicine cabinet while you are waiting for the bathtub to fill.

Take care of the packaging.
With Amazon and other online shopping options, organizers are seeing more and more packaging laying around homes. Professional organizer Nonnahs Driskill of Get Organized Already stresses the importance of getting boxes out of the house as soon as possible. “This is a new category of clutter I am finding in every house I visit,” she says. The tradeoff? “Consider the hassle of breaking down your boxes and separating trash from recycling as a trade-off for not having to drive to the store to shop.”

Change the way you buy.
If you want to keep more stuff from coming in, then, according to Denaye Barahona of Simple Families, you need to change the way you buy for the family. “Once you declutter, the only way to stay decluttered is to buy more intentionally,” she says.

Denaye Barahona via Simple Families

Only keep the stuff you use every day on hand.
Another great tip from Simple Families is to make sure anything in your command center/mud room are items that you use every single day. These spots often become literal drop zones for things that go discarded or are left to collect dust, therefore cluttering your space. “Turn it into an active space instead of using it as a storage space,” says Barahona.

Set a timer.
Trying to declutter can be overwhelming. Felice Cohen, author, Professional Organizer and Motivational Speaker suggests giving yourself a set amount of time to tackle a space. “Set a timer on your phone for 10 minutes, half an hour, an hour, depending on your energy, then work in one area. When the timer goes off, stop, you're done. This eliminates the feel of having to do too much at once. What often happens is you're motivated by the progress you've done, so in that case, reset the timer and go again.”

This 3-Step Daily De-Cluttering Plan Is So Easy My Kid Could Do It

Top Hacks to Stay Clean & Organized Beyond Spring

12 Secrets Organized Moms Want You to Know

Feature photo: Dawid Liberadzki on Unsplash

Me organized? More like organized chaos. Life and stuff can be categorized, put in files and bins. But it takes effort. With a bunch of kids, it’s required, unless I want to be overrun by kids’ papers, projects and just general junk. Even when I had only one kid, I kept blocks in bins, craft stuff together and puzzles in bags. Stuff stays nicer for longer if you keep it organized, together and useful.

Here are simple organizational hacks for practically every room in the house. Here’s a tip before you even get started: buy some bins!

Kitchen

Think proximity. Put the most-used products and utensils at hand, in drawers near sink or stove and less-used items up higher or down lower. I keep all wooden utensils in one drawer right next to my stove, since most of my cookware will scratch with metal.

Keep dishcloths and towels within arms reach of the sink. Empty the dishwasher daily to avoid backlog on the countertop.

Living Room

If you allow toys in your living room, family room or den, get a toy box with a cover or use the ottoman. Many coffee tables have hiding places below the surface for keeping magazines or other clutter. Stand at the entry to the room and find a piece of furniture, like a sofa, loveseat or chair, to visually hide any loose toys or the toy box.

Bedrooms

Daily, kids (and parents) need to make their beds and handle laundry. This is not so much a hack as a vital life skill kids need to learn, unless your Au Pair will supervise their chores or you have a maid service. Seriously though, very little children can learn to put away toys, shoes and laundry, which is most of what makes kids’ rooms a nightmare after a week or two of no intervention.

Weekly, we “tidy to the corners” and sweep or dry mop. Underbed storage is vital, as are shoe holders and closet organizers.

Office

Don’t let bills and random paperwork clog your world! Get organized with folders to keep kids papers, home papers, bills and so on, hopefully in a file holder or small filing cabinet. For whole home organization, use a whiteboard (which can be accidentally erased), Google calendar or my favorite, a cork board. The trick to efficiently using any of these methods is to utilize and check them habitually!

Laundry

Hopefully, yours is out of sight, out of mind. Hampers and laundry baskets can be kept in kids’ rooms or in a shared bathroom. To keep the flow of laundry moving in my house, I remind the kids each morning (or every other) to deliver their dirty laundry to the bathroom basket for cleaning. They help me sort the loads, carry to the basement and start the machine.

The idea is to eliminate clutter and create a peaceful environment for your family. The holidays created quite a bit of clutter in my house and probably in yours, too. It’s been weeks and I am still beating it down.

Create a place for everything that is important and then be sure to put things in their place. Another helpful hint to eliminate clutter is to be sure to put away stuff after you use it. It sounds simple, but how often do you just set something aside rather than put it back where you found it? Regular habits can be just as useful to organizing your home as can bins, holders and organizers from the home store.

New Year, new you, right? That is, a newer, more organized version of you. And that’s what makes the timing of IKEA’s New Year’s organization event just perfect.

IKEA’s “Get Organized” event is Saturday, Jan. 19 from 9:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m local time. Not only can you shop the store (what could be better?), but you can pick up plenty of deals on home organizing essentials—oh, and a sweet IKEA coupon, too!

This not-to-be-missed event also includes free workshops where you can learn about home organization from experts. Workshops include topics such as “Kitchen Junk Drawer No More” and “Closet Clutter Be Gone.”

If you’re one of the first 200 IKEA FAMILY members to enter the store on the event day, you can get a free LANKMOJ pen cup set (regularly $4.99). As if pen cups and home org workshops aren’t enough free stuff for you, snag IKEA coupon for $25 off your in-store purchase of $150 or more on Jan. 19 and 20.

Mark your way up the canvas and see how high your kids can grow with the help of the Lorax and his friends the trees.

Say goodbye to the days of fighting with your kids to get in the bathtub, because they’ll look forward to throwing on their Horton hooded towel once they jump out of the tub. Just don’t be surprised when you have a hard time getting them to take it of once it’s time to get dressed. $29.99.

Time flies, and so too will your child’s imagination when they get lost in playtime or when they’re reading The Cat in the Hat for the 13th time that day. The whimsical design and colorful characters make this wall clock a welcome addition to any self-respecting Dr. Seuss bedroom.

Available as wall art, stationary and even iPod and iPhone skins! $18-35.00.

Building a love for all things Dr. Seuss starts early. How early? Well, even the tiniest of tots can enjoy the colorful creatures from the pages of Dr. Seuss’ books as they dangle overhead.

That’s where items like these stylized switchplate covers and outlet covers come in handy. Pick up a set in just about any design and style that you need to fit your kiddo’s room. $6.50

After baths are taken, teeth are brushed and the wet towel and toothpaste debris is taken care of, all your little Cats in Hats will be suited up in those Seussical pajamas (hopefully with both legs in the leg holes and arms in the right spots too, but let’s not get greedy). Complete the whimsical night time imagination travel package with character sheet sets to match. $18.18-$100.

Now you can carry your love for all things Dr. Seuss with you wherever you go (and oh, the places you’ll go!) with this charm bracelet.

Currently the bracelet is adult sized but can be customized to fit even the littlest of wrists. $25.99

The Lorax was the protector of the trees, and what a good job of it he did indeed. Now he’s jumping into the kitchen, onto your tike’s bib, to make sure messy food spills don’t get on them. Prewashed and reversible with a yellow terry cloth back, the Lorax will ensure that mealtime is a clean affair with this Lorax printed baby bib. $8

The whimsical playtime doesn’t stop even after your kiddo has jumped into bed and turned out the lights. Keep the darkness at bay with the help of the Cat in the Hat. He’s expertly balancing all kinds of objects on his hands and feet, and ready to keep your little one’s room, bathroom, or hallway bright all night. No bedtime is complete without this Cat in the Hat nightlight. $19.99
