Kids outgrow their toys as they mature from one phase to the next. Eventually the parent will have to make room for other stuff to put inside the kid’s bedroom and getting rid of the toys can become a monumental task especially if there are a lot of items to put away.
So as not to be overwhelmed by this, it’s suggested that clearing out these toys must be periodically done to avoid an overload. Making this a habit can make purging very easy to do. Here are some things you can do to make the task lighter:
1. Pack toys in boxes for easy storage. Pick out the ones that the child no longer plays with too much. Putting them away in boxes with label would also be easy, in case the child comes looking for it one day. Before you store them inside though, make sure to wipe or clean the toy first so that germs will not multiply while in storage.
2. When the child really shows no more concern for the toys, maybe it’s time to donate this to charities or pass along to younger siblings and cousins. If you do this regularly you will see that it’s a lot easier to get rid of the clutter in the child’s room. A bag or two, filled with toys your child no longer plays with, is enough to please kids at the orphanage.
3. Hold a garage sale. Profit a little by selling the toys in your neighborhood or selling this online. You can make a good profit if the toys are fairly new and haven’t been played with all that much.
Good luck with the purging!
