Clutter seems to breed in small spaces, and ADHD only makes organization harder. Use these four ideas from orderoochaos to get your child's room tidied up this summer.
Designate specific storage spaces for EACH child. Tall thin bookcases, under-the-bed storage boxes, even closet shelves will create natural and separate zones. Don’t forget to clearly label any bins or baskets you use with each child’s name. This will take the guesswork out of knowing to whom the boxes belong and make it easier for both boys to find their belongings.Wall or vertical storage helps maximize space by using every inch of the room possible.
Clear shoe bags can be used in closets, and behind bedroom or bathroom doors. Repurpose them to store small toys, electronic cords and wires, socks and underwear — or any other small item — for instant organization and to maximize vertical space. And don’t forget inside the closet! Anywhere you see available space, hang hooks! Perfect for belts, hats, sweatshirts, and jackets.Using your vertical space provides visual cues. Taking the “what I don’t see, doesn’t exist” mantra out of the equation.
