The following items will be needed to secure your kids’ toys, books, etc. for moving:
- Blank newsprint paper.
- Medium boxes (3.0 cubic feet), large boxes (4.5 cubic feet).
- Tape.
- Plastic bags.
- Pack your kids’ room last if they are small (ages five years and under).
- Older children (ages five years and older) advance time to pack their rooms. Help your kids with packing and it is also a good time to talk about moving and their feelings about leaving friends’ school, etc. This will offer them comfort and feelings to ease the moving and transition process.
- Pack the toys in boxes with some wadded newsprint or clothes to fill spaces. All fragile toys can be wrapped in extra clothes and in wadded newsprint paper.
- Let your kids some of the items they wish to take in the car or in the carry-on bag. Also ask them to think about their new room and where they’d like to place their things.
- Drain water from squirt guns and seal paints and other messy materials in bags or containers.
- Pack all items in appropriate boxes and have your kids seal the boxes and write their names or let them decorate their boxes.
