🎄 8 Weeks to Christmas! The Toy Cupboard!
My weekly countdown to Christmas continues, with a 5 to 10 minute decluttering prompt each week to help get our homes ready for the festive season, one area at a time.
As it's half term, this week feels like the perfect opportunity to have a little look through the toy cupboard!
It's a chance to see what the children have actually been playing with during the holidays, what they've grown out of and what might be ready for a new home.
A few things to think about:
Which toys have been played with again and again?
Are there toys they've outgrown or no longer use?
Could some toys be donated to a charity shop for another child to enjoy?
Can you create a little more space for the presents that might be arriving this Christmas?
It's also a lovely opportunity to notice what your children are enjoying at the moment. Their current interests might give you a few ideas when thinking about Christmas presents!
Follow along next week for another 5 to 10 minute Christmas decluttering prompt!
