Do you sometimes feel like the stuff that comes with having children secretly makes babies at night when you're sleeping? I try to periodically go through and donate or get rid of and still it always seems like they have so much! Christmas is around the corner and I know two things: I want to establish a mindset of giving in my children (especially at Christmas) and also, we've gotta make room for the new they'll receive.
I'm hoping to make it a yearly tradition to go through their toys with them well before Christmas and find the things they're willing to share with another child. It's amazing to see how much easier it is for them to let go of things when they do it with a heart of sharing with someone else who might not be as fortunate as we are. Prepare for some warm fuzzies!!!

Don't have kids and the toy heap that seems to come with them? You can easily apply this pre-Christmas declutter day to any area of your home (clothes, office, garage, etc.) The possibilities are endless!
