This year I let my 3 year old help with our holiday cards. It was a fun activity for us to do together.

✨ I ordered cards from Canva. We didn’t have fancy pics to add to our cards this year so I just used a few of our favorites from throughout the year. Canva has a bunch of premade templates to choose from or you can create your own. I used a template. This was my first time ordering from Canva’s lab and I was pleasantly surprised. The quality was nice and they were a dollar a card (including envelopes, tax, and shipping!). 10/10 would recommend.

✨ Then I addressed all the cards. Updated any old addresses on my contact sheet.

✨ Finally, my toddler helped me stuff the cards in the envelopes, pick wax, and seal all of the cards closed.

Do you wax seal envelopes? You should! 😉

Having a decluttered home is an important part of homemaking because it creates a peaceful and organized environment that reduces stress and makes daily life more manageable for the whole family.

The DIFFERENCE I saw in independent play with my toddler when I switched from a toy box to a Montessori inspired toy display was crazy. He played with toys that hadn’t been touched in MONTHS. But we have too many toys for them to alllll be on display all of the time. This is where toy rotations have been amazing for us.

Having less stuff also means less for me to clean up constantly. The time saved can then be used for something more fun, like our next outdoor adventure!

⭐️ Have you tried any of these ideas? Let me know in the comments!

PS: Did you know that clutter has also been linked to higher cortisol levels (aka stress hormone) in women? 🤯
