Kids & Clutter [Jayme & Jennifer Respond To Ep35]



The school art is coming in from every direction. The hand-me-down clothing complicates wardrobe systems. And the overwhelming gift-giving throws toy organization out of whack. In today’s episode, regular contributors Jayme and Jennifer speak to their tips and tricks for managing all of the clutter in the house that comes with having young children. Plus, an update on Marie Kondo’s status of a tidy home with children–and how we feel about it!

If you haven’t already listen to Tuesday’s episode, we recommend starting there before hitting play on this one!
