The Big List of Routines for Moms
Whenever I find myself feeling that a certain part of the day is out of control, and nothing is getting done, I search to find ways to make it better. I always find it comes down to changing up my routines.
I love researching routines to see how other people spend their time and what habits they deem important to include in their routine.
If I can’t seem to find the time to get something done, like sort the mail, it’s because I don’t have the task built into a routine.
As a mom, routines help me to run my household efficiently. Routines are also important for kids. But my focus is more on you, the mom.
You will find below a variation of routines to help you get your life in order!

I went from having 6 kids at home to now one 16 year old. But I am teaching a class “Decluttering Your Life” for ladies from church and Routines are a big part of it. I enjoy reading everything about productivity, order and routines and think this page might be very good for me to offer especially to moms with younger children. I’ll be clicking on some of the links to see what more there is. I like what I’ve read so far!
