A Time to Store and a Time to Throw Away -- By Nancy

Question from a guilt-ridden Mom: Do I have to keep EVERY art project my children bring home?

Nancy's Answer: NO! Don't!

I recommend that you save one or two thing from each school year, keeping them in a large airtight container that’s clearly labeled, “Prince Henry’s Masterpieces” or "Amy's Art Archives." Ask the kids for input on what to keep then you won’t feel as guilty when you toss the other items. When you do throw them, be sure to use a dark trash bag so you (or they) won’t be tempted to go dumpster diving.
