I enjoy being organised and i feel so much better in myself when I am, so I am always looking for new ways to make life easier and much more organised each day.
Having children is obviously a good reason for needing to be organised, however, also a reason why it is much harder to get organised too!
My tips/hacks are:
* Pack bags etc the afternoon/night before and put by the door
* Have snack baskets in the cupboard, snack organisers in the fridge and a supply of packaged snacks for taking out with you.
* Keep a couple of spare outfits, underwear (if potty training) in a kids backpack (or your changing bag) which are always there, so you can grab the bag and go, without packing each time.
Also, a good tip is to put these clothes back in the bag straight from the washing basket.
*Put together a little bag of snacks which can be left in the car.
*Routine, routine, routine! Kids love it and it helps everybody. For example, breakfast, lunch and dinner at similar times.
*To do lists, meal planning, need to get lists, I can't get enough of a list and actually have an app on my phone which holds about 6 lists, it's perfect as I've always got my phone on me.
* Drawer dividers, storage baskets, have a place for everything.
* When you put away your clean bedding use one pillowcase from the set to put the other pillowcase and duvet cover into, this makes a great little parcel and keeps it all together
* Look for inspiration from like-minded people (as your doing now, by reading this) Instagram, Facebook groups, youtube)
* In the morning I put the things we use/need everyday out straight away, on the side. Eg; a dummy(for her nap) and a bottle of water/juice
I'm sure there are many, many more so look out for part two coming in the future.
Thankyou for reading and I hope you have found something useful.
