Messy Rooms | CP149

In today's episode, we're diving into the battleground of every household: messy rooms.

How do we navigate the chaos of toys, clothes, and everything in between without losing our minds?

Join me as we explore strategies to encourage our little ones to keep their spaces relatively tidy. From understanding why their rooms end up looking like a mini tornado passed through, to practical tips and tricks that can make tidying up a less daunting task for them (and less of a headache for us).

But what about the teenagers, whose rooms often resemble a story of rebellion and independence? Fear not, I have not forgotten about our teens however that will be talked about in a separate upcoming episode, where I can dive directly into the unique challenges that come with their space and how to approach it.

For now tune in to gain insights on managing messy rooms for younger children and join me down the road for our deep dive into the teenage domain.
