School Uniform Organization Hacks

After four kids, I know an organization hack or two. In the event you decide to try any of my advice, the storage gems below are indeed affiliate links. That said, they are all used daily in my own home and I believe will make your life better, too!

School Uniform Organization Hacks

Our youngest is entering PreK4 this year at “big kid school” with her three older siblings. This means more hand-me-down uniforms … and organizing the closets. Over the last 6 years and 4 kids, I threw some tricks into my bag to bring some chaos to the crazy that it back to school.

Here are my {hopefully} helpful hacks for school uniform organization:

I like to use these hangers for littles. You can store their shorts with the shirt to be worn with the shorts all in one place.

Older kiddos get these space-saving hangers for their bottoms. All the shorts all in a row. All the skirts, all in a row.

I have two different types of hangers for pants. The first is just a regular hanger and I fold the pants in half over the bar. Once cold weather is here to stay for a bit, I pull the same “outfit on one” hack and put all the long-sleeved shirts onto these hangers so all items for those outfits are in one place. The other is this multi-pants hanger WITH the rubberized arms so no pants fall off into the abyss at the bottom of the closet. I like these for my older children.

I love this hanging pocket thingy for small items like socks, belts, bloomers. We can’t confuse our school socks with play socks.

How do you organize your kiddos’ school clothes?
