Now that your kid's can fold all of their own clothes, here is another super duper easy way to get them helping out AND make your mornings super duper easy!

Only a couple of steps are needed to say "Mission Accomplished" when it comes to preparing kid's clothes for the following day.

Step 1:

Snag some storage.  Any smaller sized bin will do, just as long as it will fit a day's worth of clothes for your little loved one.  IHeart this ITSO canvas bin from Target which I picked up for under seven smackaroos.  Only one needed for each kiddo, and because I have three splendid boys, Preston, Peyton & Parker, I actually snagged three of these bins:

Step 2: 

Create some fab labels!  Well, if you want too anyway.  I decided to clip on a label to each bin to identify who each bin belonged too:


I created these out of some ultra neat scrapbook supplies, pretty simple stuff.

Once I clipped to the front of the bin, there was no way the kids would get them mixed up!



Step 3:

Each evening, have your little one {if you trust them to do so!} pick out their clothes for the following day.  Then, they can place them inside their bin!


The next morning when everyone is in a hurry to get up and out of the house, it won't be a mad dash to dig through drawers and argue with the kid's about what to wear. They can just go straight to their bin and get dressed.  Pretty great stuff right there, making for a super duper easy start to the day!


Oh, and this strategy isn't just super duper for kids, it can be for any teen or adult also!  Storage just might not be in the form of a bin, maybe in the form of a coat hook hung in the bedroom or closet, where clothes can be picked out and hung up the night before, saving boatloads of precious morning minutes the following day.
