Toilet paper roll wind sock

1) Toilet paper roll

3) hole puncher

4) hot glue gun

Cut holes with hole puncher all around the toilet paper roll. On the other end cut 2 holes on each side (this will be your top). In the 2 holes on the top tie a string to them so that you can hang it. Then glue ribbon (your choice of color) up the side of it. Then loop knot the ribbon in varagatingcolors in the holes at the bottom how ever you like.

Shopping Clean Up the Clutter Game

This especially works for little girls because we all know that little girls love to shop. Lay out all the toys in different categories.
Stuffed animals
Dolls/cars or action figures
Accessories
Little toys(Shopkins,LPS) make sure that these are all together.

Set it up like a yard sale with blankets under the stuff. Give her/him some change. I just used change around the house. Use the silver for the big stuff, and penny's for the little. You can use fake money too. Then have them go on a shopping spree. You'll be surprised what they get rid of when they only have a limited amount of coins to spend.

What ever they don't buy donate.
Questions I asked her were do you have all the prices to it, if not is it really worth playing with. We put all the little toy sets in gallon sized zip lock bags. Another question is how long has it been since you played with that is it worth keeping over your other stuff.

We put all the little stuff in bags in the toy box. Those are easier to get to. We put her dolls in the highchair and cradles. We put her stuffed animals arranged on her bed. We put shoes in a door hanging shoe organizer. You can also use those for little stuffed animals. The more stuff you can hang on the wall the better. Get a stuffed animal net to put stuffed animals in. Hang stuff with command hooks so you don't mess up your wall.

You can use the change that you found and they spent to buy them something new.

Make a rule that for every toy you get, get rid of 2.

Explain to them that this is supposed to be fun. And that their room will look a lot better. And if it looks better. Then you can have company over to play with you with your toys. And it will be much easier to find the stuff you want to play with.
