Overwhelmed by toy chaos as the holidays approach? You’re not alone—and today, we’re tackling it head-on. In this episode, I’m sharing how to declutter toys before Christmas without losing your mind (or your kids’ cooperation). We’ll chat about why clearing space now makes the holiday season feel lighter and calmer, plus I’ll give you practical tips to:

✔️ Make room for new gifts while keeping the clutter at bay ✔️ Get your kids on board with donating (yes, it’s possible!) ✔️ Decide what to keep, what to donate, and where to donate it

I’m also spilling my top tricks for setting toy boundaries (hello, six-cube cubbies!) and why fewer toys can actually mean more creative play.
