KIKI & JAX

It’s a cute way to let folks know, some times they accumulate too many things.Donations, sorting and letting go of things

I am a big Marie Kondo fan, and have been using her methods to help me keep things that spark joy and my house tidy.Now that we have a toddler, it was overwhelming to deal with all the items that are needed for them (diapers, sippy cups, etc.) and things that give them joy (toys, crafts, etc.).We also wanted our toddler to get into the habit of learning what gives him joy and how to organize his things. This book was amazing for that and it also taught about respecting one's differences and helping friends.Highly recommend to any child (and even adults). The drawings are amazing!!!

As a certified KonMari Consultant, I have shared this book with my friend's 8-year-old son, and he found it encouraging and visually helpful in imagining how he could tidy up his own room. We both loved the vivid colors, adorable characters, and clear examples that showed the difference between the joy of being tidy vs. the frustrations of being untidy. He referred to the steps of folding at the back of the book when we practiced folding his T-shirts in an upright rectangle. Excellent book for instructing and inspiring kids to tidy up with joy!

I love and respect Marie Kondo and the Konmari method so much and have been a follower since 2014. I love her other books, and they spark joy with their size and texture. Unfortunately I do not feel the same about this book. For one thing it arrived with a big mark on the cover. That did not spark joy. The other highly subjective critique is the size. It’s a large book. I would have preferred a smaller format with high quality paper (the paper is smooth and thin, unlike the texture of her other books). The (very) short story is okay, cute for kids but the pictures don’t spark joy the way the illustrations in her other books do. I think it’s a missed opportunity (and hopefully not just a money grab) - I would have loved the book to have the same feel as her other tomes. I guess I expected more.

Beautifully Illustrated and written in such a way that my 3.5 year old immediately went and wanted to tidy her room so her friends could play! Love this book! She requests to read it atleast 3x a week and seems to generally keep things picked up. She is only 3 afterall. Weve had the book about a month and today she said she had too many books and helped pick which to donate without a fight and seemed to enjoy it. Highly recommended!

This book's story is precious. It got my children's attention including an adult daughter. They were able to answer my questions about what the book taught them. I think they get it now, finally.

I am smitten. This sweet story is going to be such a helpful tool to so many parents who are searching for a way to teach their kids about how to care for what they own and to make space for what matters.I read it to my own 7-year old daughter, and the life-changing magic was practically instant...I’m a professional organizer, and I can’t wait to gift this to my clients with kids. Fantastic!

Love this book. Read it with my 4 yr old and we are gathering his books today. There are things I would do differently since a sentimental gift was given, wpuld be including that category and maybe all the categories. But it is very clear and simple. I love sharing this with my son.

My partner has the adult version of Marie Kondo and tips for a tidy house. So we thought it was a good idea to share her children’s book for our daughter.She absolutely loved it and took the book to school for the teacher to read to the class.

Thanks Joyful Living Tidy Home for suggesting this book as a gift. Perfect.

Soy mamá de un niño de 6 años y una niña de 1 año, siempre hay juguetes tirados por todos lados, y no solo juguetes, lo que la beba encuentra a su alcance lo toma y lo tira, anteriormente aplique el método konmary, pero con dos niños pequeños es difícil mantener perfecta la casa, he comprado este libro para motivar a mi hijo a ser más organizado y que la pequeña siga el ejemplo, queria el libro en papel pero no se cuando va a estar disponible en México, y no pude esperar así que lo compre en digital y me parece muy entendible el mensaje para los niños esta en ingles pero sibtu hijo aun no sabe leer con las imágenes es mas que suficiente para que lo entienda, es una manera linda de enseñar a los niños a ser responsables con la única obligación que tienen, jugar!

My therapist actually recommended this for my daughter. While we haven't put it into practice yet, I am hoping it helps her let go of things she no longer needs. It's very cute - she actually likes reading it so I consider that a win!

“I loved this book, thank you for making it!” Words from my sonHe’s arranged all his T-shirts as per KonMari method himself
