    When my kids were younger we had a bag that they would put the wrapping paper in as we go. Makes cleaning up so much easier. That was alot of work for one person. Its good to get the family on board with helping to clean up. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Always look forward to your videos.

    Ok, I'm going to show my age here... there was never ever a single time my parents crawled on their hands and knees picking up what us kids through on the ground. Ever. Not a single time. Not paper, not toys, not food, not anything. Those were old school parents. My mom was like I didn't throw it there and I'm not about to crawl around on my knees picking it up. And she was like watch it not be there if you leave it. Ha!

      Yup me too. If you wanted to keep your stuff you'd better take it to your room and put it away. The day after Christmas was spent writing thank you notes - no playing or visiting with friends until it was done. We'd stop once in a while during the madness to clear up the mess and then resume opening whatever was left. We also kept a list while opening presents to know who to thank for what. We had a great time. We also were expected to help out with some chores/cleaning in between weekly visits by our cleaning person.

    We throw the wrapping paper in a trash bag, usually it’s all handed to their dad and he throws it away. It definitely doesn’t mean we don’t have a mess-because it’s two days later and there is still stuff everywhere. It helps that the wrapping paper is thrown away right away, because then the toys don’t get mixed in with it and little parts rarely get lost.

  • @annw1395
    @annw1395 2 года назад +24

    We have a big trash bag handy while they're opening presents, and they toss paper in as they go. If the paper starts to build up, we halt present-opening, and catch up on the mess.
    It keeps presents and gift cards from getting lost. If there's too much mess afterwards, presents get walked on, parts get lost or broken, and that's certainly no fun. That wouldn't teach respect and care for the gifts they just received. Plus we always clean up the paper before the kids get to play with any toys so pieces don't get lost or broken. Just part of them learning respect and responsibility for their possessions.

  • @Jettsmom98
    @Jettsmom98 2 года назад +3

    That was quite a mess! I’m sure the kids had a blast! We always try to clean up the trash before the kids/grandkids open up the toys. I remember when I was a kid, we lost a toy in the trash. I never wanted my kids to feel sad about losing a toy. My kitchen needs a major cleanup from baking and crafting. It’s not big enough for all that mess.

    Your little pug is so cute! While our kids never had their own garbage bag we didn’t let them take apart their toys until the mess was cleaned up. It accomplished 2 things: first, it encouraged them to control the mess and second, it encouraged them to help pick up the wrapping paper so they could play. Also, a strict rule in our house was that they were only allowed to get one toy out at a time, especially if they had several parts to them.

    Hi I am from England. My children are older now but when they were little we always collected the rubbish straight away.

    Ok this isn't a criticism so I dont want anyone to get the wrong idea from my comment but here in the UK we try and recycle as much cardboard/paper as we can. Do you guys in the US not have to do this? I watch a few cleaning vids from our American friends and lots of you just throw everything all in the bin/trash without separating it. Is that the norm? We have a fairly good recycling system here.

    • @ashleyforbes
      @ashleyforbes  2 года назад +1

      I’m annoyed with how they do it here. I know it’s not like this everywhere in the USA but where we are they don’t even offer a recycling bin 😑 and you have to live in certain county’s to be able to bring your recycle to the places. Then they are SO picky on what they take. It makes it so hard to recycle even if you want to! If you have a cardboard pizza box they won’t take it because it has grease on it. Dumb stuff like that 🤦🏼‍♀️ it’s frustrating!! Then it makes it look like Americans don’t want to recycle but we do we just have very limited ways to do it that are very inconvenient.

    I keep one or two bags ready for paper (yes, we cheer when someone "scores" a "basket"!), and then stack the empty boxes and plastic bits in a separate area to the side. After the presents are opened, I separate the plastic and cardboard that can be recycled and flatten all the boxes (salvaging the instruction books and accessory pieces that may be hiding there!). Even if you don't recycle, you will have manageable piles of flattened cardboard and plastic pieces instead of heaping piles that rip out the sides of the trash bags. PS: Loved other folks' ideas of a large, holiday decorated box for trash and having separate individual laundry baskets to put opened gifts in!

    As you talk, I am nodding enthusiastically! You cannot see me but I will tell you I agree with so much of what you are saying and doing and why. We must think a lot alike, at least about cleaning! Nice story: in many Christmases past, my Mom would organize a "bag boy" an a "bow man." It really didn't matter if these two were female, the names stuck. The bag boy had a large black lawn trash bag and all of the wrappings and cardboard went to him- even thrown (gently) - across the room, for him to put in the bag. The bow man had a smaller bag for bows that could be reused and Mom would want to save. Likely your kids are too young for this and are much too involved in the gifting of it all just now but it's a thought for the future. It worked out pretty well as Mom had a special treat for her helpers and we competed to see who would get the honor. Eventually, Mom had to rotate the roster as we came to have 4 more step-siblings and riots were about to break out. Enjoyed your video- thank you!

    We open and throw paper everywhere but before we play with anything we clean up the paper. My son is 5 and he helps and then opens one toy at a time. It looks so good when you’re done. Great job.

    • @ashleyforbes
      @ashleyforbes  2 года назад +1

      I am definitely preferring a one story! I want to get a one story next house if possible. My kids love being in a 2 story but same as you I feel like things get left downstairs and our space just feels so much smaller being divided. 😅
      Merry Christmas!!! 🎄☃️ && Happy New Year!! 🎆🎊

    I put a big empty laundry basket in the room, and after opening a gift the kids throw the warppings right in there. They make a game of it, to make as many 'goals' as they can. later I can just take the basket(s) and seperate the paper from plastic easily.

  • @colleenzeglin4974
    @colleenzeglin4974 2 года назад

    We have a bag and watch each person open a gift, reading who it is from then putting their wrappers in the bag and passing it to the next. I have found that way nothing important is thrown out.
    We don’t open any sealed boxes until everyone has opened everything. Then we get another bag for the packing crap. Omg! There is three times as much stuff in packaging than the item in it.
    I am also the type of person who doesn’t go to bed with dishes left in the sink or garbage left out.

    I accidently threw away a new toy piece when I first moved to be with my now husband. I was step mom and needless to say my step son was devistated...from that day one nothing was allowed to be taken out of the box until I gathered all the paper...i gave each boy a garbage bag and said fill it up as u go lol. that makes me sound anal I think lol but it helps so much for the clean up afterwards and saves toys from being thrown away by accident!
