Activity

Families produce a lot of art, lists, and messages. In the current busy society, individuals need to be creative and practical in their attempts to share very important information. There is a simple, yet obvious solution.

The refrigerator.

The refrigerator has one of the most important roles within any home. It doesn’t keep food cool and fresh, but it also serves as a focus, art studio and forums for the family.

Mom finds it easy to place her grocery list and menu around the front, posted completely view. This can help serve as a reminder of what is for dinner, but additionally provides an easy access place to write down ingredients that need to be collected the very next time she visits the store.

Kids get the refrigerator to become an irresistible art studio. What better place in the home to display their latest drawings, paintings and creations compared to the fridge. When a child feels the pride of experiencing their artwork displayed for the world (or at least the family) the refrigerator is never clear again.

This year of life where crayon scribbles and finger-paintings adorning the shiny surface is brief lived. Kids mature ever so quickly. Parents should embrace and encourage their budding artists. Artwork needs to be displayed not just prominently, though style. Beautiful Mouse Pad make it very easy for children to enjoy the spotlight.

For many families, this magnetic bulletin board can also be the message center. Since we all need to eat, it seems like the most obvious place to post a phone message, checklist, report card, or any important message.

Do not allow Chaos to reign:

The process with applying this central point as a collect all, is the fact that clutter is simple to post in plain sight. Pictures are put over mom’s list and covers dad’s phone messages. This turns an innovative space in to a disaster.

This doesn’t take much to arrange, but it takes a little planning and a handful of magnets that add to the decor of the property.

How to organize your refrigerator’s exterior:

Divide your refrigerator into specific quadrants.

Either side for lists, menus, and home planning.

One side for important messages plus a family calendar.

One region for kids artwork.

One space for photographs.

After a little bit of time set aside for organization, you can take this blank canvas and turn it right into a highly efficient and artistic space for your family!
