This must get done before Christmas! Who else gets stressed by clutter in the house? Me too. It’s time to go through our kids’ toys, donate what they don’t play with anymore, and throw away broken toys to make room for what’s coming at Christmas. I always feel so much better once it’s done.

The plan: donate or toss
We keep it simple:
- Donate toys the kids don’t play with anymore.
- Throw away toys that are broken.
That’s it. Doing it before Christmas means the new gifts have a place to go instead of piling on top of everything else.
Do it together
Let’s get it done together. Put on the video, grab some bags, and knock it out in one sitting.
