Kids Hanging Closet Organizer + Free Printables

They say necessity is the mother of invention, and necessity sure prompted these fun kids closet organizer cards I created!

Can you believe that I have four kids going to three different schools this fall?

Kids Daily Outfit Closet Organizers Free Printable

I am trying to find any and every way that I can shave time off our morning routine to ensure that all children are to school on time. I have the perfect way that I know is going to help me out, and will hopefully help you out too!

I created some kids closet organizer cards so we can plan out our outfits for the school week a week in advance!

On Saturday or Sunday I’ll go through my kids’ clothes with them, and we’ll pick out their outfits for the WHOLE WEEK, and then hang up the full outfits together.

In front of each outfit will be these cute hanging chalkboard outfit organizers that I created as a free printable for you (and for me!).

No more digging through the baskets of clean laundry in the morning to find an outfit for school. No more non-matching outfit choices that kids love to sneak out of the house wearing. No more of your kids trying to wear the same outfit twice in a row. And that stained shirt your kid loves to wear? Not anymore!

Β All outfits are ready to go and easy to grab. Just hang the top on one hanger, the shorts/pants/skirt on another hanger, place each cute hanging organizer card up in front of the outfit, and they’re good to go- literally!

I am still brainstorming how to add socks, hair bows, and accessories to the outfits, too, to make mornings even easier. I’m thinking I’ll make (or buy) some cute little bags to hang on each hanger for each day.

    I made a free printable set of DIY closet organizer cards for you to download- one set has blue text, one has pink.

    Download one of two ways:
    • As a 4×6″ download. Every day of the week is a 4 x 6″ jpeg that you can upload to any photo printing site and have printed on photo paper. I printed mine at Costco, and for two sets it cost me a whole $1.60, so only 80 cents per set! Just click on the links below.

    • As a 8 1/2 x 11″ PDF. Each set is two pages, and you can print at home (will take a lot of black ink for the chalkboard), or take it to Staples or Office Depot and print both pages for around $1.

    You could also laminate each hanging clothes organizer if you wanted to make it more durable.
    You wouldn’t believe how excited my kids were to get their sets! I was very pleasantly surprised.
    Do you have any tips on how to make the morning routine go quicker? I’d love to hear them!

      Great idea. Wish I had thought of this when my boys were little. I invite you to share this at a blog hop I’m co-hosting, My Favorite Posts Show Off Weekend Party. We go live Friday at 3pm MST.

      Wow. I LOVE this idea! I have 3 boys and my husband gets them ready for school (mostly) but I’m the one running around grabbing their clothes because he doesn’t know which belong to who. They have gone mis matched, in shorts too small, shirts too big, old ripped clothes, etc etc. It’s maddening! But I am trying to get ready for work so I really don’t have the time either. This is brilliant. So happy I found it πŸ™‚ Thank you!

      I teach this concept to adults at my organizing seminars – it can double or triple closet space! Underwear and pantyhose can go in the jacket/slax pockets. Clip hangers make it easy to put slax/skirt, blouse and jacket on one hanger

        Yes, and for me I need all the closet space I can get! Thanks for the tip!

      I love this! I would love to also have a Sunday. Sunday mornings for us are worse than a weekday:)

        Good point! Sunday morning definitely can be rough for us too, heading out to church early and getting four kids ready. I should have made weekend versions too! I don’t have a blank template saved to make a weekend version, but maybe if I have a few extra minutes I can start from scratch and make a weekend version. I’ve gotten a few email about them, too, so it sounds like they would be helpful. Now to find the few minutes to make them! πŸ˜‰

      Just made these for my kiddo’s. I used 4×6 laminating pouches to laminate mine and they fit perfectly. πŸ™‚

        Hi! I love your idea, but I’ve never used laminating pouches. Could you send more info on how you made this work? Thanks!

        Laura, do you have weekend ones??

      Lovely! I’m thinking for myself. My kids pick out their clothes the night before and, except for jeans, wear them to bed. Yes, they always look like they got off the red-eye, but they’re kids! They’re going to be all wrinkled in an hour anyway. Makes our mornings super easy.

      I did this years ago when my children were younger, but a bit more elaborately: laminated full-sheet size. We hung them each on a hanger, and on the bar of the hangers had little drawstring bags for all of the little things. We used the daily placards to stick post-it notes as things came up relevant to the days. Also super glued a clothes pin on each placard for those notes that didn’t make it to a sticky note. Lastly, a plastic grocery bag over the hanger for important papers needed for that day, or special shoes. Some people can stick to a Sunday night routine, but we just did it as laundry days came along and notes were needed. No big deal. When the kids get older, you don’t need to keep picking out their clothes. Just hang the placards in the back hall on coat hooks or something, if this tool is working for your family.

      Holy awesome Batman! I actually found and save these a couple months ago but – my first thought was “holy cow this is going to kill my ink cartridges! Especially since I have two daughters – printing two sets would probably drain them altogether. It wasn’t until today I actually read the suggestions you made! #Genius!!! #Brilliant #IamSoExcitedNow!!! I am SOOOOO GOING TO ORDER THESE AS PHOTOS USING MY PHOTO APP ( I think it’s $3.95 for 100 prints so I’ll just fill the rest with pictures for Grandma – Merry Xmas to her Thanks to YOU’ lol!!! Haha! )

      I actually found the retail version of these in a random $5 & Up store in SoCal back in 2009 but they were out of the box/damaged with goo from the tape they rewrapoed em in AND (the worst) they were powder blue for a baby boy!!!
      Unfortunately I knew nothing about scrap of paper or mod podge back then so they probably said around for one Dash two years before I ended up giving them away to a friend with a boy. Long story short/long story long actually – Thank You again!!!

      YOU ROCK!!!!!

        Haha, thanks Meg! Yes, printing them as photos is definitely the way to go without it costing an arm and a leg for ink. Plus, they have a nice finish on them that I like because of the photo paper. So glad these are helping you!
