we're having big problems getting our 8year old to tidy her bedroom. (and before you think that I'm some cleaning fantatic it would be nice to hoover the floor at least once a week - its starting to smell in there!). Drawing up a list has been suggested but the level I have to go to in terms of giving her explicit instructions have meant that the easy to use guide is now over 3 pages long and there's no way she could handle that. Given that she has loads of loads of toys (thanks to my mother grrrrr)someone has suggested boxing tonnes up and rotating them. That way she can't make so much mess. Someone else has then suggested I then photograph the room in its tidy state and use this on the guide to tidying her room.
Should I box the toys up with or without her? They're not going just going to only come out one box at a time.
