How to get kids to clean their rooms: Tip 1

Getting kids to clean their rooms actually starts before they are even born. What? How can that be? When kids receive all those adorable gifts from baby showers, then holidays, then birthdays, stuff accumulates. Sooner or later, kids have more than they can possibly even play with at one time.

Get kids cleaning their rooms Tip 1:

Plan to set aside a least one, or more, gifts to donate or give to a family in need. When your kids are small, they will never remember what you gave away. Giving gifts away that are brand new is sometimes easier. Think toy donation bins at holiday time that often only accept new toys. Trust me, it will save you sanity when your kids grow older and don't want to part with their toys. Don't feel bad about giving gifts away that were given to your children because surely there will be more gifts in the future. Clutter will add up if you don't take action now.
