Master Bedroom and Kids’ Rooms – Getting Organized

Getting Organized:
In your home and homeschool
This week we are going to work in the bedrooms in our homes. Our main focus is the Master Bedroom, but you can also give your children assignments to work 15 minutes a day on specific tasks in their bedrooms, too. This week is an excellent week to declutter and get rid of extra things that have been stored in our bedrooms. Walk to the door of your bedroom and take a good look. What do you feel? If you don’t feel peaceful, purpose that you will spend 15 minutes a day this week making your bedroom peaceful. Make a list of 5 areas you need to work on in your bedroom. They may not match up with the Zone assignments I give you, but that is okay. I want you to take ownership in your bedroom and how it looks. You can also do the same thing in your children’s rooms. If their rooms are really cluttered, you might have to help them break it down into small steps. Take a look at the floor, flat surfaces, bed, and closet.
Here are your Zone Missions for the week for Zone 4 – Master Bedroom (Kids’ Rooms)

Monday – Clear your flat surfaces and detail dust

Tuesday – Clean and sweep under your bed

Wednesday – Declutter for 15 minutes in your Master Closet

Thursday – Spend 15 minutes decluttering your dresser drawers

Friday – Take care of the Stash and Dash in your bedroom.
