Packing

     With regards to packing, you can involve the rest of your family by letting them pack their own things in their own rooms. You can let your kids help by letting them sort out their toy bins, closets and dressers so that they can choose what they want to keep and what they would like to give or sell. In addition, you can teach your kids what things are essential to them by letting them choose them. But before you do, you must explain to them that this box can only contain the things which they will need during the moving trip and the first few nights in your new home.
Also, you will need to choose the clothing items which you will be needing during the trip and even the first nights in your home. You must set these items aside by packing them in a suitcase which you can later on carry with you.
