Nanny to Mommy

We all know that kids have tons of toys because they are often left on full display all over the floor. As much as you try and clean up, you know that the toys will be splayed all around the place a few minutes later. Thus you need to find effective ways of storage in order to encourage a tidy bedroom rather than a jungle.

All in all, to cut to the chase; a plain box simply does not cut it. Children do not respond to them. They see it as a pointless piece of furniture. You need to find storage methods which are exciting, have the appearance of a toy and thus appear fun to the child. This is not only important for the bedroom but daycare centers too. This will encourage children to put their toys away because they will no longer see the task as a chore.

In order to give you a helping hand, we’ve compiled a list of the top storage ideas for kids’ bedrooms. Take a look at the products below in order to gain some inspiration and ideas for toy storage…

There are only a hand full of brands that I keep working with because I believe in them and National Geographic Kids is one of them. My kids love learning about animals and they keep coming out with unique books that are enjoyed by everyone in our house.

National Geographic Kids Books is rolling out a brand new series of picture books that are perfect for kids ages 3-7 (preschool - 2nd grade). To celebrate the release of the first two books in their So Cool! So Cute! series National Geographic is giving away a very huggable prize pack: a hardcover copy of So Cool! Sharks, a hardcover copy of So Cute! Pandas AND adorable shark and panda plushes.

For Valentine's Day, I made some chocolate covered strawberries with Once Again Amore Almond Spread. I love to have date nights at home. My husband and I don't eat out much anymore since we never know what to get when we go out plus we are trying to save money to pay off debt. So with that said, date nights at home are key. But honestly my new FAVORITE thing that I have made with Once Again Amore Almond Spread is these No Guilt Hazelnut Energy Bites!

My son started Kindergarten this year and to be honest, I was worried he would be starting the school year behind. Although I tried to work with him this summer to catch him up, we were so busy that sometimes we didn't have the time. We didn't confirm that he needed glasses until this past January so I know that has played a factor into what he learned. I want him to excel and feel confident in his abilities. My son has the type of personality where if something isn't "his idea" and fun, then he doesn't want to do it. So when I was sent the TinkerActive Workbooks through MomsMeet, I was excited to see how they could help him.

If you’re planning a wedding, one of your main priorities is likely finding ways to include your children. Including your kids in your wedding can be a great gesture, whether they are kids from previous relationships or kids that you share with your partner. Including them in the wedding will make them happy about anything that may change for them and ensure they don’t feel scared, left out, or confused. Take a look and see how you can include your kids on your wedding day:

Get Them To Help You Make Decorations, Invites, and RSVPs Beforehand, if your kids have a creative gift, you could get them to help you make things like decorations, invites, and RSVPs. Depending on their age, you may have to give them a simple job, but they will love being included and feeling like they helped do something important.
