How is the toy situation in your home? Do you feel like it's a never-ending game of tidying up? It doesn't need to be this way! 

Remember when you were growing up kids had toy boxes? And now kids have toy rooms? No wonder it's harder and harder to keep toys organised. And with marketing targeting our kids with toys to collect rather than toys to play with collections are getting out of control.

Today explore what types of toys you want to keep, where and how to keep them and top tips for engaging your kids in decluttering and organising their toys from as young as 3 years old.

You are invited to join the free course for this series where each Monday you'll receive access to a new podcast episode, decluttering checklist and organising cheat sheet, all so you can declutter and organise like a pro!
