With babies and young toddlers, buy cheap whites to wear around the house for everyone. When your toddler smears their pbj hands and face into you, nothing expensive is ruined. Washing will be the same for everything, just bleach it all together and if its just worn around the house stains are less of a big deal. Youll still have nicer clothes for going out but if your home a lot of the time the whites are a time and money saver. $30 for a dozen or so white tees you can swap out is easier than washing grease out of a black top and then spraying stains on a pink one for a big mountain of laundry. Just spray the out of the house clothes and bleach the at home clothes
So true! I can’t allow toys to take over my house can’t do it! 😅 I keep my kids outside in the park, library, and outdoor activities to keep them from destroying my house with toys 😅
I'm not sure how I ended up here because none of my demographic slices match with the focus of your channel, but I ended up staying for the occasional dark and hilarious comments you make. XD
I just started watching your videos (love them by the way) and this one in particular is the truth especially about kids toys. All parents should be aware that too many toys actually overwhelm children and cause them them to not be able to focus. More does not equal richness, wealth nor abundance, it just means more, which will soon boil down to clutter 😢. Children should be able to remember their toys as special, but they can't if they have too many.
Toys are so hard for me. My kids do play with them. My girls love little people, figurines, princesses, and my son loves Legos, hot wheels, magna tiles, k'nex…so many things and pieces. They do play with them though plus dress up which is used by two of my kids.
It’s not dumb at all .. I also buy clothes in the same color palette and it’s actually fun it can help your child style easier and learn to pick proper styles and patterns that go together naturally
I couldn’t agree more about the extra toys. My kids don’t have that many toys. They have a lot of toys don’t get me wrong but not as many as other kids. My sister and mom keep on buying them more toys since they have so few toys LOL. I tell them not to and to please create memories for them instead of wasting money on toys.
My Mom kept a tidy house, but she always felt like a governess to me, not a mother. So I like when was talking about making sure you're seen as a Mom not a maid.
I promise you a lot of the things you share is my same thought process and even my verbiage 😆. We have 8 pets 3 kids and since COVID it’s been challenging to implement consistently and That starts with moms large wardrobe too many toys nobodies playing with and as sweet as my loving husband is, he’s really a great father but house cleaning it’s like Wrecked Ralph’s and lil Wreck Ralph Jr.! When we had a maid-for shame I would pickup so the maid could clean efficiently. I’m at a lost and I’m needing help. I’m hoping I can try again with out whining bribing fussing creating fail shore boards I have no help😭. Thanks for providing
What do I do if my kids are older (10,6,3) and are already not used to helping and fight it so much and honestly don't really know how to clean up 😅. It was easier not to involve them when they were younger but now I'm realizing that was a big mistake!!
I love how you keep it real by not editing out your kids busting in on your filming. Its great that you're so down to earth and set realistic expectations for your home & your family. Ive just discovered your channel today and I've subscribed straight away because i just love your style as its so similar to my expectations. I'm in no way there yet with my home, but your videos will help with the motivation to get to that sweet spot for my home & family. Thank you.

Great video ❤
I couldn't agree more that our kids are "spoiled" with item's, they don't know what to do because there is so many choices.

Home reserve couches are awesome for washable covers! The entire couch can be replaced in parts and fabric can be machine washed.

Volumes were spoken in this video
This is by far one of my absolute favorite channels I’ve ever stumbled upon on YouTube. So thankful!!!!!
You must be a stay at home mom. ❤

I can't get your cleaning lists to open up with your link. Please help

I agree with buying clothes in a similar color palette. I hate when they have weird colored shorts that only match with one certain shirt!
There’s a lot of these people
😂😂😂
Thank you for this video
