I don't even have kids. Everyday is a learning day.
Love your personality.

Me too , 19 moved out on my own for the first time . Adulting is hard .
I’m 29 in a half hour and learning how to adult TONIGHT lmao! Started with her budget video from the conference (I am a Mom?) and here I am lol
KrisAngel2012 happy birthday 🥳 🎉🎂🎁
I have watched this video like 3 times. I don’t know why. I’m 12 but I am getting into your videos so I can help my family.
Bless your heart, you angel! Your parents must be proud.
That is amazing!
Awesome job!
K Bonner Too cute!
You’re an angel sweetheart 💖💖
"Never had colours bleed on cold water!"
Well, I have had bleeding with brand new blue, red and black clothes. But my grandmother gave me a nice trick against bleeding on first wash. Before washing, soak them in water with a ton of white vinegar overnight, then just skuish them so most water is out and wash them. Never had any "bleeding on first wash" since I've been doing that 😁😁
My mom did a “summer camp” when I was 6 and my brother was 9 and taught us to do all of the house chores and laundry so I’ve been doing my own laundry since I was 6 including folding
Love this idea!
Most children will think this is torturous, but props to your mom 🙌🏼 she wasn’t using her kids as slaves like people love to claim, she was teaching them to be independent and have skills to move out from home 👌🏼
My Mom did the same when I was five. I had my own stool that I used for chores. Loved it.
I totally disagree with that.. teaching kids lessons on how to do things is one thing.But laundry that young shouldnt be one of then..Maybe 10yrs is a good time.. let kids be kids for awhile ..adulthood is tough .
Sarah The earlier you teach them responsibility, the higher chances they aren't stuck paying Chinese people to do their laundry at 25. I see no harm in it and anyone with kids knows they want to help.
Wow we should really appreciate Moms like this. My mom worked full time, an hour from home, & did this every weekend for the entire household. Idk where you guys get the energy. Hope your Mother's Day was amazing!
I'm so going to try this
and she has a full face of make-up on!
I just want to applaud the teens watching this video for learning amazing life skills and not wasting your time with less important things that could ruin your mind. And thank you Jordan for this awesome video. Love love love this!!!
The fact that I sat here and watched this whole video when I am single with no kids and a college student shows just how amazing and satisfying your videos are. Definitely recommending you to friends. Subscribed 👍🏾
That's the best time to watch videos like this! You have the opportunity to learn all of this before you drive yourself crazy trying to keep up with a family. RUclipsrs who make videos like this deserve sainthood! 😂
Heavens Angel sameee
I can't believe I just watched someone do their laundry for twenty minutes... and enjoyed it! lol
Michelle Dawn me either!
Michelle Dawn ikr! Her videos are a bit lengthy, but worth watching every second! I love this.
Michelle Dawn lol 😁me neither ! , geezo. That's a hotel she 's running there 😁😁😁😁😁👍💗
Wow! Amazing video. I separate per color but watching you, make a lot of sense the way you do! I'll try it for sure. Loving your laundry system!
Meeeee too! She's just great! Loved her!
You're not a bad mom for not folding clothes. I make my four boys out their clothes away too. They are learning now how to fold and hang up their clothes. You are teaching them such valuable things!
Melissa Smith m My question is....how do you get them to do it? Lol
This woman is literally so intelligent! She's financially stable and responsible!!! Love her
@@cherylnelson8392 Do you feel the need to bring people down for not making as much as you do? Because that's actually sad. Not being rich never was, because people can be happy without money, but you can't be happy when you're angry enough to treat people this way. Hope whatever is happening to you gets better soon...
@@cherylnelson8392 so motherhood requires no expertise? Dude you're just digging a bigger hole for yourself... Find some other place to dump the product of your insecurities pls
Furthermore, no, absolutely not, most adults are not financially stable. Most households live paycheck to paycheck, actually.
@@cherylnelson8392 we get it, ad hominem comes easy to you. 👌
@@cherylnelson8392 😂🤣
Cheryl Nelson check your numbers for „most“ people. A lot of people can‘t even cover a $1.000 Emergency and a College student has over $20.000 in student loan debt on average. So don‘t get me started on „financially stable“. Jordan is an „expert“ because she has a lot of kids and gets it done well. You underestimate care work of (mostly) women and the skills to juggle all of it in a frugal manner.
love how you manage this with so much JOY! a friend of mine saved me TONS of time (she has 3 kids) by revealing that she washes her kids clothes separately. That way she is not sorting them twice. One child - one load of clothes. then move on to the next. I even started doing this with my clothes and my husband’s clothes. Game changer for me!
I don’t know why I’m watching this...single, no kids...I usually wash when run out of clean panties 😂
I really enjoyed it, though, you’re immensely entertaining - I wish I had that kind of relentless energy! Subscribed.
Rara Avis - oh my gosh! You posted the exact statements I was going to post. This woman is my hero. I would love to be so energetic and organized. Right now I have a huge pile of unfolded clothes on my guest bed. Sadly, all I want to do is sleep!
So true! I just spent 20 minutes of my single, no kids, clothes never get dirty, now when was the last time I washed my bath towel? life. 🤣 I think I watched being so amazed how lucky kids are these days. Growing up on a farm w/ limited water, my Mom would’ve whupped us if we threw something in the laundry that wasn’t visibly dirty. And dryer? Nope, we hung up outside. Carrying that to college to the dark blue Calvin Klein jean era, washing your jeans once a week was fancy. To this day, my clothes never wear out...and I, too, wash everything together.
Josephine Oaks-Courtney I understand how you feel... I have a tough time functioning and feel really guilty sometimes, knowing what I am supposed to be contributing , and not doing it enough to a normal level...
She’s the mom we never knew we needed (or needed to be) 😂🙌🏽
I could use some of your energy too.
😲 OMG! I will never complain again about our laundry. Did you viewers catch on that most of the clothes were tiny? AND...there was a million of them! Your laundry room is lovely, but you deserve it.
Love how she teaches her children to be independent.
And if you’re a grownup, learn it yourself so you can teach your family and kids. It’s never to late to learn 😉👍🏻
I’ve always sorted both by texture and by color. By doing this method, my clothes never get fuzz balls and dingy, as well as keeping the colors bright. It also helps to do a double rinse with everything. You’ll be surprised to see how many suds come out during the second rinse. Not enough thorough rinsing of the clothes can also cause them to turn dingy and leaves a sticky film that accumulates over time.
I like how well organized your laundry room is.
Only someone THIS personable and enjoyable, could get me to watch a nearly 22 minute video on washing clothes, LOL!! Subscribed to your channel, LOVE!
MrsKramper didn't even realize i spent almost 22 minutes of my day watching this video. That was quick!
Hahah that is so true!! No kids, I just live with my boyfriend but as a recent Uni graduate who lived in halls and now a flat this will always be a helpful reference !!
@@teeg1834 Haha as soon as I read her comment I scrolled to the top to see if it really was 22 minutes. That was quick indeed! lol
I had the thought 's had am I doing 15 minutes into a video and watching a woman sort dirty clothes , is this faulting?' X😂😂
I thought that same 😂
im in college with NO kids and im literally sooooo entertained by this, her organization is everything
At least your that far I am twelve and a half
@@elisemendoza7918 same but i am 11
Save cash and use White Vinegar in your wash and it takes out stains and brightens whites. We use it all the time and it is Amazzzzing!! As for greasy, heavy stains, I use Dawn soap on the spot, rub it in, lightly rinse the spot and TahDah it is gone.
For heavy duty stains use the multipurpose spray cleaner from Lidl. Spray it on the stain and send it into the machine. It's really unexpensive and save you a lot of money. You can use it to clean the whole house except for wooden furniture.
And put white clothes on the clothesline on a sunny day, it will bleach it naturally 😉
How much white vinegar to one wash load ?????
@@cutesybunny3360 I use a cup.
1 cup
Fun Fact: to prevent wrinkles, lay clothes flat ontop of each other and square fold everything together then insert in basket. I have a client who hates wrinkles and I normally run out of time to fold and put away the same day. This allows me to be able to keep a schedule rolling and know that I can fold the clothes the next day with no wrinkles ✌🏽
Love it!
Yes, I can't understand going through the work of doing laundry and just laying things in a way to be a wrinkled mess. I'm sure she's got it down to a science.
Nice!!
We do almost the opposite thing for socks. We buy ones with designs (the $1.50 a pair ones from Target are awesome) and then just always wear mismatched socks. They’re the same type of sock, just different designs so it looks nice and weird at the same time.
We get a lot of compliments and it drives the in-laws crazy. ;)
That is brilliant! Sure makes it easier on the person doing laundry. XD
I thought i was the only one that did this. My mom absolutely hates it.
I’m sorta similar but I buy the patterns to be able to match them easier 😂
😂 you got me rolling at the in laws part!!!
My 3 kids were completely domesticated by the time they were 14/15.
It's so important to teach your children so that they are equipped to go out and live their lives.
Thanks for your videos, they are so helpful. Bless you heaps 😊
I honestly love that you let your family fold their own clothes because I personally like folding my own clothes and my parents fold my clothes differently then I do. Also letting your children fold their own clothes can teach them to be responsible so I think your a wonderful mom
Me too. It's important to teach independence and give your kids a little bit of freedom to try things on their own and make their own choices to find what works for them.
Yes, Jordan getting her kids to fold their clothes does two things, gives them responsibility & her time to do other things.
The fact that you DON'T fold their clothes for them and actually have them do it themselves makes you a GREAT mom! We have always had to do our own laundry ever since we were old enough to do it. Even if all we could do yet was sort and fold. Our friends were always baffled that I actually knew how to use the machines and always knew what was clean and where it was without having to ask my mom. I really appreciate that she taught me how to take care of stuff like that before I was thrown into it as an adult.
Your energy is just infectious! Thankfully I only have one kiddo (teenager), but between her and my husband they build up laundry like crazy!! I have one day a week that I do laundry and then they have the responsibility of putting it away. Kid is much better than the hubs at that. Love this video.
Trista Maye cull their clothes ! Y'all only need about one weeks worth of clothes in 3 different styles casual, nice casual and church/office. Helps me save on laundry!
Your future daughter in law thanks you!! Way to go raising a boy to know about laundry!
Alexa Catlett or son in law ya never know
Do most boys not know how to do laundry?
Alexa Catlett 🙄
Heck, her future son-in-laws will appreciate her daughters actually knowing this too. I've met way to many women my age who have no clue how to operate a basic washer and dryer, let alone how much soap to use. And you can forget asking them to fold anything! I'm so grateful my mom made me help with laundry when I was little.
Thank you for giving your children the life skills to become a functional adult! Many parent handicap their children by not giving them age appropriate chores. By adulthood they are completely unable to handle life on their own... 😃
This stuff should be taught in high school
I agree. And Sadly, it was. It was part of Home Economics. Which also included household budgeting for groceries, home maintenance etc. They took it out and now (if you don't watch RUclips) you have to pay to have someone teach you how to handle household issues.
It should be taught in the home by the parents. It's so sad that the school system is literally becoming the parent.
We sort our clothes by throwing piles on the ground...
Hahahahahahaha! 😂😂😂😂
I love this!
Lol same
Me too😀
Exactly!
I don't have any kids but this was fun and informative to watch.
SkinnyDee FIT same :)
SkinnyDee FIT sammme !!

same lol
The same lol
the trick of buying the same colour of socks from the ankle up is SHEER GENIUS. You have cracked the code for the quest of the missing socks!
"No longer fold them", I literally rewatched that just cause it was so satisfying 👌 Win for the parentals!
I know this is random but I use dawn dish soap( blue liquid only) to get all my stains out, seriously a little dawn on the stain and I take an old toothbrush and scrub the stain then into the wash as usual. I know it sounds random but it works, even on set in grease stains and grass stains that have been through the dryer.
Same! Works like a charm! :)
Yup even on poop stains
Aisha Zee Poop stains come out really easy if you set the clothing in the sun for like 30 minutes.
Laura Prow. The owner of a dry cleaner told me to put a little dawn on the collar of dress shirts. to get the stains out and yes its true! Never crossed my mind to use on staons on the rest of the clothes. Definitely a lot cheaper and a little goes a long way. Thanks for the tip!
I mixed Dawn with peroxide it's the best stain remover.
I do the same thing with my kid, he has to learn and help!! He is 10 and the only kid I know that do laundry, cook small things, fold clothes. I love how independent the kids turn and they fell good and confident.
I'm following you!
Jordan is one of those people who don’t seem to BS for RUclips. It’s refreshing and she’s awesome!
Haha! Mum of 4 in 5 years here, first thing I got rid of was individual socks! Black socks all the way here. We have a small hamper to keep them all in!
You are freaking GENIUS! I have 7 children, currently pregnant with number 8 &I will definitely be doing this soon!!! Thanks!!
Pretty Pinckney I have three. I would love to
Have 8 children ! Congratulations!
ya a super lady ?
Maybe it’s time to stop. No one needs that many kids
@@mercykosmajac5238maybe you need to mind your business. no needs an irrelevant ignorant unwanted opinion.
Nené Nimi You can never adopt to many.
If I had a laundry room like that I'd do laundry for a living! And enjoy it.
ronnette harvey me too! my laundry room is in the basement bathroom which is not a place I like to spend time in. lol 🕷️
ronnette harvey i
It IS quite the fabulous laundry room!! I have the idea like she does with all the laundry baskets and sorting bins, but my room is too small... I would love to know how she would be able to make my vision work for me!
My room is on my first floor, but I am loving that newer homes than mine now put laundry rooms on the second floor... lots of problems solved with that concept! How amazing is that?!
Electra King could you hang mesh bags on the wall for sorting clean clothes? I keep two tall laundry baskets in my closet and sort lights and darks as I go and then when one basket is full I carry it to the laundry room and sort into two loads -light weight and heavy weight. I have a rule for myself that I have to fold all my clothes right out of the dryer, otherwise I never do it.
Lies
I'm 19 and don't have kids but you inspire me. I hope to find a husband someday who actually will support projects like this or doing things unconventionally!
I love doing the laundry, it's my most favourite thing to do! I find it so satisfying when everything comes out smelling fresh! (yes i'm weird) Great tips btw x
Great laundry room tips! Before I retired I owned a laundromat. We did laundry for customers, mostly men who worked in the "oil patch" of southern Alberta. Their clothes were really, really dirty. We always used cold water and OxiClean for their coveralls and it cleaned the most stubborn greasy stains. Sometimes we even lessened old stains that had been there for a few months (and plenty of dryers). OxiClean is awesome. I can't use bleach because of breathing problems. I use OxiClean and warm water for my whites... and my whites are brilliant. Also, you can fill a spray bottle with good detergent (Tide truly is best but blue Dawn dishwashing liquid works as well), and water and use that as a stain-spray (for whites add a teaspoon of hydrogen peroxide).
One thing that I suggest for "church clothes" and for socks... get some zippered, mesh bags (at the dollar store or Walmart). You will never lose a sock again to the "sock goblins" and your good clothes will not get ruined no matter how fancy they are. Just fold any sequins or glittery bits to the inside and zip the bag closed.
The machines that are in this video are the best... not the brand, the style. Front loaders can't be overloaded. When they are full to the top of the door, they will still clean your clothes properly because the water doesn't just swish the clothes around, it actually is forced through the clothes and washes or rinses them completely. Also, there is fresh water running in and out of the machine throughout the process. Double rinsing works best if you have a machine that will do that since it is the soap that makes your clothes dingy.
As for top loaders, they don't/can't clean as well because the water runs in and then the clothes get swished in the dirty water... and the rinse water will be dirty within a short time. Always double rinse if you can in a top loader machine. :)
We do one type and color sock for all our kids! No matching!
We put them in a mounted Ikea trash bag dispenser by our shoe storage. So kids put on socks and shoes by the door and we’re out!
good shout ✨✨✨
Genius
Freaking amazing idea!
Only works if kids are close in age?
Good grief!! Your laundry room is the size of my entire freaking kitchen!
Bigger than my kitchen!
@@stylinartist2 same
My laundry room consists of my washer and dryer in my garage.... Next house .. It's going to be priority.
I’ve lived in apartments around that size, with a baby 😂
Adulting always has to start somewhere!
My house, that I own, as an adult, makes only about 5 of her laundry rooms. That’s 5 rooms and a bathroom. I didn’t climb very high when adulting, but I had 5 kids and was never able to bring in much money. I see kids (teens) are following her videos. I just want to say to those young folks; everything you’re doing now, is shaping the quality of your adulting. Make good choices 😊
You're a good mom BECAUSE you make your kids fold their own laundry. My kids fold their own laundry. They don't always love it, but it's a life skill. Too many kids don't learn life skills before they leave for college. A friend of mine's kid just went to college and he was totally prepared. But his ROOMMATE...his mommy came and lived with him for a week to teach him how to grocery shop and do laundry and everything else an adult needs to know to LIVE. It's a disservice to do everything for our kids. They need to learn! Love your laundry hacks!!!
Who else doesn't have kids but taking tips anyway
Janelle Garrett me!!!
🤣🙋
Meeeee!!!!
🙋🏻♀️ #NoShame
I'm by myself and I need all the help I can get lol. I never thought of peroxide in the wash. I'm gonna try it, but I hope it takes out the coffee stains on my shirts. Love coffee, not the bumps in the road that makes me spill it. Ha
Only my husband and me, but seriously I took this video like a classroom lesson. Greets from Mexico.
Julieta Perez no matter how many people you live with or if you live by yourself these tips are sooo important since we all (hopefully) wear clothes that need to be washed properly depending on the types of fabrics and colors lol
Learned a few tips was really helpful! Will say however that I don’t get the whole “taking up all the soap” theory. I’ve really tried to find out what I’ve been doing wrong with my own laundry. I used to separate by color, but I tried simplifying my routine so I decided to stop separating...period. Well obviously the lights (colored) started looking dingy sooner than later, but also the materials themselves just looked crappy, even when washing all in cold. I used to blame the washer or brand of clothing, but my in laws all bought the same brands for their kids but theirs held up way better, I couldn’t figure out wth I keep doing wrong! Anyway it came down to this, the reason you should separate by texture (don’t leave out color but do separate the major different colors) is because the heavier items will A) take up more space B) beat up the lighter clothes. Also, check out your washers settings, they really do matter. I have an older style top loader and used to think they all had the same settings, but for average slightly dirty laundry it shouldn’t take more than a 6 min wash cycle (via Martha Stewart) and some settings are just more gentle on clothing whereas some were designed for VERY dirty things like greasy work denim. Jordan I’m glad you don’t have issues with clothes bleeding but I will say I have lots of brights that’ve seen better days colorwise just from my brief period of not separating colors. However just from separating denim which makes the water BLUE helps a ton.
I believe this is the first video of you I watched… or one that made me subscribe… love coming back from time to time and rewatch 💗
You are so organized! I have 4 kids, they generate so much laundry, it is unreal. I gave up on sorting about a year ago and I swear I notice NO difference, the clothes are not wearing out any differently...nothing runs...I think we have been lied to! With a good washing machine I think we have to sort way less than we have been led to believe! I cram that washer pretty full with one load of whatever is dirty, wash on a high sanitize cycle, throw in some oxy clean with my detergent and do one full load a day so there is never any laundry build up...life changing.
I love that laundry basket grid setup.
I grew up being told to sort by color. Now I know my whole life has been a lie. Because sorting by texture makes much more since. Thank you for this! ❤️
Subscribed the second you said that your kids fold laundry. I was like "damn, I found my idol!" Lol fun to watch
I'm definitely gonna sort clothes by texture. It makes sense, never thought of that.
I tried this method, unfortunately our light colored clothes developed a grayish tint from the darks. I think it’s just easier to separate by color and wash towels and sheets separately. Thanks to your video, I’m more mindful of size and texture now, so that has helped me separate our laundry for a better clean. Also, I only wash for two people, so I can’t begin to imagine how much work it would be for a family this size. Amazing how you approach all of your household tasks. Thanks for sharing.
I found putting a load of "light weight" darks separate from "light weight" lights kept my clothes bright. Plus wash brown/pink/red then blue/green/purple/gray separately is best. Yes light weight items need to be separate but that is how . you keep your stuff nice.
Technically she said you should have 2 heavy weight bundles, one for light and another for dark, and 2 lightweight loads, one for light one for dark. I think cz she tends to talk fast you didn't get that part.
Also, if you use warm water that will happen! You've for to use good detergent and cold water!
I would never do this it’s like it’s a waste of time everything in the wash machine gets wet regardless. you got a good washer you’re gonna get your clothes clean …do you know a real great trick mix baking soda and white vinegar that’s what I do all these new techniques that these people are coming up with is mine boggling. I’ll stay with my way that I was taught from my mother where our clothes were very clean .just a side note I still starch my jeans😂
You can get out stains and gross smells that won’t go away by putting a little bit of listerine mouth wash in your washer with your detergent
Nearly all my clothes are black or white. I do them separately in cold water & put the more delicate items in a large netted “lingerie bag”... things in the bag get hung to dry, everything else can go in the dryer. Towels & bed linens are done together they’re all white & get hot water.
If I have a brand new bright hot pink or red outfit for my child, I just soak it in the sink for 15 minutes cold water while i sort the laundry then ring it out a little and throw it in the wash after the water is in. Takes the "bleeding " out like a first wash. Awesome laundry room, mine is tiny.
T-shirts will last longer, colors remain brighter, darks remain darker, if you wash them inside out, especially if they have graphic art printing on them.
I always wash cloths inside out ... afterall that is the side next to our skin (:
And when you use a clothes line they don’t fade as quickly
@@Lyndeejo88 Exactly!
Good luck doing that with six kids🤨
@@my2angels4ever26 I have six kids and always turn our clothes inside out to wash 🤷🙂
The first best thing of doing laundry is having an actual laundry room! Then all the tips and tricks possible. HERE'S ANOTHER ONE: tossing a couple of tennis balls in the dryer will attract all, and I mean ALL the hair from the clothes!
You're so smart and practical.... you never leave me in a fogg. After watching your videos I get tons of motivation and practical advices.
This video is so GENIUS!! Where on Earth did you learn all of your tips & tricks not just laundry wise but everything?? So much useful information.

Pinterest + upbeat personality
This mom learned" ON THE JOB"! Lmao! ( 7 kids here & I wish I'd thought of this)
Your house must be gorgeous because just your laundry room is enviable.
ImmaMink You ain't never lied! Can I have one just like it?
Belle M. To be fair, Jordan Page does have multiple of her own businesses, which are successful, and she works with finances. That’s why people watch her videos - they WANT this advice. She also doesn’t judge anyone for doing things differently, she’s just sharing tips that work for her. And yes, she is frugal. She does things such as spending freezes and shelf-cooking in order to save money so that she can spend that money on other things for her family. That’s how her and her husband were able to pay off their debt and build the life they wanted for themselves. She’s allowed to talk about saving and budgeting and still treat herself with her own hard-earned money.
That’s a ton of laundry, whew. I like your tips. Keep spreading the knowledge, young kids starting out on their own need this information
So enjoyable VDO! Thank you so much for all the tips. ☺️
Our Pastor and friend has 10 kids! I remember when the kids were younger (most of them are grown now) the mom would go to the laundry mat once a week and wash, dry and fold all in one day using several washers and dryers, she amazed me. Also, when my 2 boys were near grown, then and my husband all wore the same socks, so I kept them separate by putting something on the bottoms of them with a sharpie, one had a smiley face, another had hearts, and so on, every time I bought a new pack of socks, I did this to the bottoms that wau, they each had their own. I would LOVE to have a laundry room like yours! Stunning. It sure would make washing clothes a pleasure lol
Dana Lowe That is so sweet about your kids’ and husband’s socks :) you gave me an idea there. And man that pastor’s wife must have been the strongest woman. I have a friend who has dour kids including triplets and does all he laundry in one day and irons everything by staying up till 4am. I think she’s mar but she is a bit OCD
Dana Lowe i love the idea on your drawing on the socks. Genius!
You can do something even easier than drawing on the socks. Recently we donated all of our socks to charity. Then for my daughter and I we bought black socks. So we never sort them we never look for a mate we just slapping together, done.
Tracy Z damn wish my mil would just do that instead of so any colored socks.
After I divorced and had to go to laundry mat .... all my clothes were ruined: dryers were too hot, washing machine cold was too hot.... my clothes shrank and they faded. I bought apt sized washer and dryer and ran the washer using the kitchen sink w/ attachment and dryer through my patio door. Inconvenient but, no more ruined clothes!
Moms are warriors.
You have such a great channel, and I love your system!!! I'm a grandmother that suddenly has 2 boys, 6 & 7 years old. I have to relearn how to do a lot of stuff! This is the best laundry advice ever!! They will start folding and putting away their own clothes tomorrow!! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!
Love it! I am not folding laundry this week and loving it. Catching up so much faster and it’s not so overwhelming anymore.
So glad!
A good mom isn't a mom who does everything for her kids, it's a mom who teaches her kids how to do things (and obvs like a two year old can't do everything, but getting them in the habit of/teaching them how to take care of themselves in the ways that they can is one of the most important things)
agreed I taught my girls that to clean their rooms cook their own simple meals, and importantly the laundry, I told them (as young adults) that I won't do their laundry if you need something the next day. They can help to by not just dumping the dryer load on top of the dryer they can fold it.
I commend parents now a days that actually make their children do things that they are FULLY CAPABLE of! Good for you!!! 👏👏👏
You are a good mom teaching you're kids responsibility
The level of genius in this. Ideo is mind blowing! I have two kids and can barely manage. This video is life changing. I'm off to Amazon to buy all white towels and all white socks THANK YOU
Never thought I'd be on RUclips looking at a video on how to do laundry. But here I am, and thank you. That was so oooo informative
By the time our kids are out of elementary school, they're fully in charge of their own laundry. We sort differently than you do. Each person has their own hamper and basket in their room. Laundry gets washed according to who wears it. This started because the oldest 2 kids are 15 months apart and were the same size, resulting in clothing acquisition by the sibling. It solved one of the fights they always had. We have a "blessing basket" for the culling process. They outgrow it, don't like it, etc and they just drop it off in there for me to either store for another sibling, or to send off to a friend in our clothing stockpile rotation (some of it comes back to us for a much younger kiddo), or to the donation pile if it is a viable donation item.
We sort the same way. It has been so helpful! We started because my husband is in the trades and his clothes get super dirty so we didn't want to wash his stuff with all of our clothing. I LOVE the idea of a blessing basket! My 5 year old often comes to me with items.she has outgrown or no longer likes.
You are sooo goofy I laughed so hard when you did that little dance by the dryer. Lol 🤣thank you so much for the tips they were very helpful.
Your the woman I didn’t know I needed in my life. Don’t remember how I just found you but thank god I did 😅🙌🏻
This made me really want to do laundry
Jaclynkay This ALMOST made me want to do laundry 😂
Jaclynkay lol me too! And I am!
Jaclynkay me too! Headed to Costco to buy pods lol
I totally agree with you on all points (I've done the exact same thing for years now). Only one suggestion: I stopped using dryer sheets a long time ago due to skin allergies (and they ruin the dryer, too) and I have never had an issue with static cling. Also stopped using fabric softener. I save a tonne of money and I haven't seen any difference so just wanted to share. Also, we bought a steamer for my husband's dress clothes (he has to wear suits every day to work). Best purchase ever. I couldn't stand the hours of ironing and now he steams it all himself and it's great. So please, everyone, spend the money on a full size steamer. It's worth it!
I'm actually doing some of these tricks now - glad to know I'm not crazy. LOL I have saved SO MUCH sanity switching over to all white socks for everyone and just gray tips for youngest. This was a great video. Thanks for all the extra tips and time savers!
You are a magician. Just a real life magician of how you organize and stay calm in your life!
Dryer balls are a great reusable alternative for dryer sheets!! 😄 And you can add a few drops of essential oil to them for a nice scent.
Dryer sheets and liquid fabric softener are not needed if you use distilled white vinegar in the fabric softener section of the dispenser drawer of the washer. Vinegar gets rid of the excess detergent that builds up and "hardens" fabrics, i.e. it is a natural fabric softener and odor cleanser.
I looooove my wool dryer balls!!! They're amazing! They also help dry the clothes faster!
Omg yes!! I just moved into a place that had a washer and dryer and it's a front loader washers and dryer was included and Omg it smelled so bad my husband had to remove the seal so I could clean it now the clothes don't smell and I put vinegar in the fabric softener part and I love it!!! I'm trying to remove chemicals I want to make my own detergents lol and I need to dry those dryer balls so bad!!
Great idea
Divya where thou to never set them on top of any wet laundry you may have resting on top of your washer because they will mold in a snap. How do I know... 😵 👃🏻 😭
Idk how I ended up here but I stayed for the whole video
same!!

Love your organizational skills and your sense of humor. I am a NEW subbie today! Love, love, love your tips!
Aww thanks for the love, Wonda! ❤️
Hi Jordan, I just discovered your channel. I don’t have kids, but your budgeting and organizing are already helping me as a married woman. Your family is darling.
Lady...where have you been all my life???? I don't have kids, but you've get this down to a science!
This is my first time visiting your channel. You’ve got a new subscriber, you had me at “slow clap”. Lol great tips
haha✨
I love it!! Is it normal to get so much joy from watching cleaning and home org vids?!
I'm (whispers) 39 and this has only JUST become a thing for me!! I applaud that you get the kids involved. In Nigeria, kids get "morning duty" which means they usually do some cleaning before school. But I grew up in London so my mum didn't insist on this. Unfortunately, laziness became a huge struggle as an adult - a legit liability, always having a "tired" mindset where everything seems hard or too longwinded. In contrast, a younger friend of mine, who's a nurse, manages to get so much done before I've even started thinking about it and she can keep going long after I'm ready to call it a day, and all that on top of working crazy long nurse shifts. So I think starting younger is definitely an advantage and something that your kids (and their future spouses) will thank you for. Is all I'm sayin' :)
This was the first Fun Cheap or Free video I ever watched. Still so good!! The only things I’ve ever had bleed colour is like new black jeans. I always check them but just chucking them into a bucket of water to see how badly they bleed.
Honestly the best thing I have ever found was this stain remover recipe..I used it on my sons onesies from when he was learning to eat and got very stained, they were washed and dried several times and still came as clean as they were they say i got them!!!
2 parts peroxide
1 part baking soda
1 part dawn dish soap
Mix together and cover areas with stains until saturated, then lightly scrub the stain and let sit for 1 hour, wash as usual (I usually do 2 full cycles to make sure all products are gone) and the stains should be gone after you dry them!!
Wow you just schooled me no joke! my whole laundry life was a lie with the lights and darks! Going by texture right now. i have a load in now we will see if your theory is right,I have faith in it 😂. I thought me and my man had alot of laundry jesus woman ill pray for you! Haha
Right I have been doing everything wrong 😂😂😂😂😂
I already commented but have to say I LOVE your tip to sort laundry based on weight. I've been doing this for two weeks now and my clothes are coming out looking much fresher and like new! Lady, you're a bonafide genius! 😊😊😊
Omg laundry room goals 👏👏new subscriber!
I do whites and colors lol. And I don't notice any extra wear or really anything negative about it. And it is wayyyyy simpler than all those different loads of sorting. But I also think it's great to find what works for you and get in your own groove.
Please do a video on how you steam your clothes...
I'll definitely get my kids to sort their own clothes. Thank God I don't have so much to wash yet but it's gonna come at me so I'm glad I watched it. You're personality is awesome! Love your videos ❤️greetings from Northern Ireland 🇮🇪
Amazing video! (& I never thought I’d say that about a laundry video!) Hugs from Australia!! 🇦🇺
I always put my girls 'church' clothes in a lingerie wash bag and put them in with the normal load. They come out clean and the bag protects the tulle during the wash. Also makes it easy to remember to not put the wash bag in the dryer 😉
Thank you so much! I’ve been married 2.5 years and ever since watching this video it’s made my life as a wife so much easier! I also have a health condition which means I’m limited with how much housework I can do, so this has helped me hugely! Thank you so much and God bless you!
I'm so glad this video has helped you!
❤️ this vid! Our washer/dryer went out for 10 days once, so we actually stacked another washer and dryer on top of the ones we already had....HUGE timesaver to have two...that way if one goes out...we are never out of commission
Jordan is out here saving lives with this video - very informative. Thank you!!!!
