Drawer Labels

Here's a little trick that is making our morning easier. We have labeled both kids drawers. Drawers are labeled with pictures & text to describe the content. Shorts/Skirts, Pant, Short Sleeve shirts etc. This has been instrumental in allowing the kid's to expand their self help skills while at the same time satisfying my desire for wear weather appropriate clothes. Each nite we look up the weather (online or on the tv) then head into the kid's room & discuss what kind of clothes we should wear...The Girl can pick out clothes from her labeled drawers.




The labeling system has also put some consistency into how the laundry is put away in the kids room.

This is also part of early learning, literacy-pictures/words together



Here is a close up of a label (thumbnail image from clothing website, actual pants that she owns) I did this to help her understand what we were trying to achieve....
