Loved this! I have two children under 2,5 years. So far I have been mainly been decluttering too small clothes and things for small babies, since we're not going to have more children. Here in Finland the way trift stores work is so that people can rent tables/recks and sell their stuff there. So it's a great way to recycle and make a little bit of money at the same time. We buy a lot from trift stores but also sell our old things. My two year old daughter talks a lot about trifting, like how a specific toy or piece is from a trift store. Also, when a piece of her chothing is too small I tell her it's going to trift store. And she always talks about how fun trifting is.
Oh that’s such a great way to go about it! I wish our thrift stores operated in a similar way. That’s so great that she is enjoying the process of thrifting! :)
I just commented on your clothing declutter video, but enjoyed this one, as well! I think my 7 and 4 year old will be able to help me go through some of their toys. Our almost 2 year old still isn't there yet. ;) Also, I would love to know your tips for healthy living/postpartum/meals/exercise, etc. - especially with small children in the house! Every pregnancy/postpartum has been more challenging than the previous to "bounce back" from, and I really want to get in better shape before becoming pregnant again (we still want a couple more children, and I hope to get pregnant in the Fall, but want to be in better shape/health before then)... would love to hear your thoughts and if you don't mind sharing your experiences between pregnancies.
I'm a single, childless middle aged man but I can assure you that if I came home and my treasures were gone there would be hell to pay no matter what age. It's bad enough at 44. I'm still salty that dad sold my plow when I was 13.

Decluttering others possessions without their knowledge is something that I think many people learn the hard way not to do!
