Get organized.
Morning clothing battles stress many parents and kids but can be avoided with a bit of preparation. Hang a days-of-the-week closet organizer in your child's closet to make for easy and relaxed mornings. The soft canvas compartments attach to the closet rod, allowing you to keep your child's things in order or teach a slightly older child independent dressing. Use a hanging organizer along with a built-in closet system or by itself. Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
1. Clear out space in your child's closet. Allow 12 to 14 inches of space on the closet rod for your closet organizer and around 5 vertical feet. Choose an open area on the closet rod without hardware or supports.
2. Wrap the wide velcro tab on top of the weekly organizer around the closet rod. Overlap as necessary, and press the ends together snugly.
3. Sort your child's clothes into daily outfits suitable for the weather. Allow him to help choose his outfits and decide which day to wear each outfit.
4. Add socks, underwear and hair accessories to each outfit. Include shoes if appropriate.
5. Place each outfit into the appropriate compartment in the days-of-the-week organizer.
6. Make time each week with your child to plan her outfits for the week, and place them into the closet organizer.
