About This Book
A parent would reach for this book when their child's bedroom has become a tripping hazard or when morning routines are stalled by lost socks and messy piles. This guide addresses the common friction between a child's natural desire for play and the household need for order. It validates the frustration children feel when they cannot find their favorite things, while gently reframing tidiness as an act of self-care and personal responsibility. Written specifically for preschoolers and early elementary students, the book breaks down the overwhelming concept of cleaning into manageable, logical steps. Parents will find it a helpful tool for transitioning a child from being managed by an adult to taking small, proud steps toward independence and organization.
