We have a playroom, a HUGE playroom, plus their bedroom and since they're not allowed in anyone else's rooms they have their very own baby nursery, a big walk in closet with a window, that no boys are allowed in. SO what happens, they trash one room, then on to the next until there's no way to walk without breaking a bone, then they want to bring it downstairs. Toys are not allowed downstairs. They do have to pick up after their done playing, but that usually takes about 3 hours. Not because I expect perfection, but because they continue to play rather than clean. Once they get started it takes about 30 minutes for the two of them to pick up. Our 2 yo son is good about upending things all over the floor. I pick up after him. THe teens???? WEll let's just say I don't go in their rooms, if they have dirty clothes then they need to bring them to the laundry room or wear dirty clothes.
If I can get motivated I try to go thru their stuff every couple of months and throw things out. I can fill a trash bag or two. Shelley
