If you have a little one who likes to get themselves dressed in the morning, your nice tidy T-Shirt drawer can become messy. I love that my son knows what he wants to wear, and we always encourage him to get himself dressed. So I decided to tackle the drawer and make it easy for little hands to grab a T-Shirt.
Here's what I did..
This is what my four year old son's T-Shirt drawer looked like before I tackled it!
Step one..
Grab a T-Shirt and lay it front down on a surface - the bed is good as you can sit down while you tackle the mountain of T-Shirts!
Step two...
Fold in the sleeves towards the back of the T-Shirt.
Step three...
Grab one whole side of the T-Shirt and fold in to the centre, and do the same on the other side.
Step four...
Fold up about one third from the bottom.
Step five...
Fold up the bottom third to meet the top.
Step six...
Turn the T-Shirt over.. and there you go! Easy peasy!
Lovely folded clothes. This gets much easier and quicker the more you do it.
Look how much space I have saved! Also much easier for little hands to get a t shirt out.
I have also shown my 11 year old daughter how to fold clothes like this so she has done her clothes too, and she enjoyed it!
I'd love to hear any tips on how you keep the kids clothes tidy. Leave a comment below.
