Prepare your house for the new routine is essential at this time of year. Not only will it make you feel more comfortable at home but it will also put order where it is necessary to put it. A few small changes and updates, no more is needed. Do you dare to do them with us?
Put order
It is difficult to keep your mind in order when the house is not. I don't know about you but seeing the messy house robs me of what little energy I can have at the end of the day. Deal with clutter, dedicate a morning or an afternoon to cleaning and organizing our house For the new routine it is essential to start this on the right foot.
Wash and store all the summer clothes that you are no longer going to use, so you will have more room in the closet for the clothes you use every day. Also collect everything that you only use the summer until the next. Update the exterior spaces of your house and simplify the interior, giving everything its place and trying to keep the surfaces clear.
Brings warmth to your home
Changes are necessary. And no, we are not saying that you have to throw the house out the window, but it can be beneficial to make small changes that make your home more welcoming and prepare it for winter. Do you need some examples?
New cushion covers on the sofa can change the appearance of an entire room. Make them combine with that blanket with which you feel so comfortable reading or watching TV and that it is time to take out of the closet. Have you been wanting to change the quilt or duvet for a long time? Take advantage of! And if before the summer you noticed a stay lack of light, Remedy it! The days have begun to shorten and working in poor light can be frustrating.
Create a "command center"
Do you have new goals? Do you want to improve your routines and those of your family? In Bezzia We spoke to you a few years ago about a very practical tool to organize family life: The command centers, a translation of the English term "command center".
It is a space in which each member of the family can consult the appointments and activities unmissable of the week or deposit what you cannot forget when you leave home the next morning. Usually these include a monthly calendar, a note board and an organization system for important documents, school work, invoices ... The idea is that everyone knows what they have to do, which brings us to the fourth and last tip to prepare your home for the new routine.
Share and delegate
You don't have to do it all yourself. If you live with more people, it is time to all sit around the table, take a notebook and a pen and distribute the tasks. And yes, even the little ones can participate. Depending on their age, they can take care of preparing their clothes for the next day, picking up their toys, setting and clearing the table, taking down the garbage ...
It is better to do it now from the beginning so that everyone is aware of what tasks need to be done at home and which ones they should take care of. Once an agreement is reached, place a list of tasks in the command center and the name of who they have been assigned to, using everything from drawings to colors to make sure everyone understands it.
With these four tips, it will be easy to prepare your home for the new routine. You don't want to do it all the same day. Dedicate the remainder of September to them, so that in October you can start from scratch.
