FIRST AID

Freeze a washcloth for a cold pack
"It's hard to predict when someone in your household will next suffer a burn, teething pain, or another bump or scrape. Be ready. Freeze a wet washcloth in a sandwich or freezer bag. Pull it out of the freezer the next time someone needs some cold care." (Found here)

CLOSETS

Here is where I'll put my tips on Closets. I stumbled on a really cool article called Dollar Store Closets.

Some of the things I really liked were the Labeled storage baskets and the Memo boards for artwork.

"To organize a child's room, solutions must fit the child. For younger children, remove closet doors entirely. Lower clothing rods and invest in child-sized hangers. Use floor-level open containers to hold toys, open plastic baskets to store socks and underwear. Devise a simple daily checklist for maintenance. To organize a child's room, tailor the effort to the child." (found here)
