Parents, this one's for you!

I've had such a great response to my One Day at a Time challenge - over 100 of you have participated in that since I launched it in January! But the one missing part of that habit building program was community.

So I'm thrilled to be launching my first FREE group accountability program where, together, we'll work to improve our habits, organization skills, and family engagement.

And since it's summer, this one is for all the parents + kids! We'll be breaking down the three week program: one category per week:

Week 1: outdoor toys
Week 2: art supplies
Week 3: the car

Plus, all the (did I say free!?) accountability from me AND community support from other parents. The whole shabang will take place in a private Facebook group, where I'll be going live, sharing resources, and more.

And there will be giveaways!

The program officially kicked off, but the challenges don't begin until Monday, July 12: smack in the middle of summer, right when things start to get messy and sticky (spilled bubble liquid, I'm looking at you).

The power of less: kids books. A few tips and remi

The power of less: kids books. A few tips and reminders on how to simplify children’s books in your home:

📕Spread them out. We have a collection of books near every reading spot in our home

📗Baskets help corral thin paperbacks and small board books

📘Edit them down on a regular basis. Sorting for 2 mins every month or so feels like less of a chore than reviewing your entire collection at once.

📙 Enjoy what you have! Books are meant to be loved and used - only own the ones that bring you and your children joy and meaning. Not feeling them? We love the little free libraries in our neighborhood, but you can also check with your local schools and public libraries to see if they are in need.

My favorite way to store canned food 🥫

If you shop for a tiered riser like this one, be sure to measure your space 📏 I love that these ones are expandable, but not all shelves need it. Sometimes, getting two non-expandable ones are a better fit.

Also, take stock of what you have before you add one (or 2 or 3!) of these organizers to your Amazon cart. Some are more narrow than others and don’t fit larger cans. This one from @thecontainerstore checks all my boxes for this client’s dream pantry, making it easy for them to see what they have 👀.

Is your pantry a jumbled mess, or do you know what you have stashed in there?

🌟Podcast feature 🌟

On this week’s episode of the Sustainable Minimalists Podcast, I chat with @mommyminimalist on all things kids, and how to work with your family members to get an organized home.

I share so many good tips in this episode, but my favorite part is that Stephanie didn’t shy away from asking me the hard questions - real life mama stuff that will make you say “yessss this is exactly what I’m feeling and needing too!”

Go give it a listen 🎧 and let me know which tip I shared was your favorite!

Ready to make some changes in how your family approaches your home, consumption habits, and organization?

Asking yourself the hard questions, taking time as a family to set goals, and most importantly: creating a system that will make it work for you, for the long term.

There’s so much organizing goodness in my “Empowering your kids” master class, but goal setting is probably my favorite section. We’ll dive into the hard questions to think through first, before engaging your family (swipe for some of what we’ll cover!). And then, walk through a discussion guide that you can bring back home.

This plus so much more is going down on Thursday at 10am Pacific! Block off your calendar and invest in yourself. You deserve it all, mama!

Empowering your kids / laundry. Real mom life with a distracted preschooler over here 🙋🏼‍♀️

She’s way more distracted than usual with a camera 🎥 + puppy 🐶 in her face than she usually is when putting away her laundry, but I’m sharing that it’s totally doable to get your kids on board with taking care of their belongings.

I helped by getting her set up with a closet that’s easy to navigate and a process that’s manageable (one load at a time), but the action of keeping it tidy is all on her. I also fold for her, but that’s just me having a hard time of letting go. All the credit to you, mama, if you let them have at that step, too.

This closet isn’t as picture perfect (stuff is falling out of bins / clothes on hangers aren’t picture perfect ...) But it’s hers to manage and I think she’s doing a pretty awesome job.

Stay tuned for more - comment below if you’d want our next video tour to be of the playroom 🎨or kitchen 🍴!

Haven’t tried decanting your cereal into easy-to-pour containers?

Here’s what you’re missing out on:

• Easiest way for kids to get their own without spilling

• Stays fresher, for longer. (No more “Mommmmmm, the Cheerios are stale”).

• It’s visible when a package is almost empty: refill and keep everyone happy.

• It looks prettier. OK, that one is probably just for you, but come on, you buy it, so you need some motivation too.
