Managing Kid Clutter at Home

Kids bring a lot of joy to our lives, but they also bring a lot of clutter! Toys, homework, books, games, sports equipment, and everything in between piles up quickly. Luckily, the team here at More Space Place Orlando can help you craft custom storage solutions that keep the clutter under control and makes sure your house stays tidy and livable. Let’s take a look at how we can help!

Custom closets for kids Orlando

Start with the Closets

Most homes come with cookie-cutter closets that aren’t built with kids in mind. Clothing racks are set too high, there’s not enough open storage and too much open space. Keep in mind that if your kids are going to learn how to be self-sufficient, they need their space to work with them not against them. By opting for more open, low-level storage, your kids can take a more active role in cleaning and organizing their belongings.

Furthermore, don’t forget that kids tend to grow quickly! Avoid having a teenager stuck with a child’s closet by prioritizing adjustable racks, shelves, and hooks that can grow with them as their wardrobe and height changes.

Use the Garage

Whether your children are into soccer, gymnastics, art, or rollerblading, their hobbies come with a lot of extra stuff. The living room isn’t the best place to keep all of this, but the garage just might be. A custom cabinet system can designate space for their favorite activities. Don’t sacrifice your personal space, but find a better organizational system for them.

Have a “Drop Zone”

As much as we hope every kid will see a custom closet layout and immediately take to it, we have to remember they are just kids. A realistic organization tool is the mudroom or walk-in closet. Racks for their shoes, hooks for their backpacks, and a shelf to place their lunches and projects to grab on the way out helps clutter stay at the threshold rather than building up around the house.
