Easy Daysies founder, teacher, and busy mom of three Elaine Comeau has just introduced a new way to help your children organize themselves in order to make life easier for the whole family – ReStickables!
You probably know that the Spilt Milk Moms are huge fans of anything that helps us to stay organized, and may recognize the name Easy Daysies from our review of their fabulous magnetic schedules for kids. ReStickables are practically a guarantee that your kids will FINALLY put their own clothes away, not to mention being able to find them later, and we were lucky to be given some to try out by EasyDaysies. Here’s what ReStickables are about:
- ReStickables are made out of – get this -FABRIC! This means that they are tear-proof, waterproof, and durable.
- They easily stick onto flat surfaces such as dresser drawers, storage bins, closet doors, etc. And as easily as they stick onto these surfaces, they can also easily be removed without damage to the ReStickables or the surface (and do not leave that sticky glue residue). I think the best part, though, is that they can be reattached to a new surface and will stick, stick, stick time and again (think Post-It note). If you have a child like I do who enjoys putting a sticker on something and then peeling it off and re-sticking it somewhere else, then you know how important this feature is.
- Just like Easy Daysies’ magnetic schedules, each ReStickable includes both the word and a drawing of the item for readers and non-readers. I like to think that having the word and matching picture will help my two year old son learn to sight words for each clothing item while he’s learning to put his clothes away.
- ReStickables come in three colours – orange, blue, and pink. And just in case you’re wondering which clothing items are included, the list is as follows: coats, dance clothes, dresses/skirts, hair stuff, long sleeve shirts, pajamas, pants, shoes, shorts, socks/stockings, sports stuff, summer stuff, t-shirts, undershirts, underwear, and winter stuff. Pretty all-inclusive, I think.
We’ve been using ReStickables for several months now, and Oliver’s favourite part was attaching each ReStickable to his dresser drawers! We love to play “see if you can put this away” and then “go find this item”, and Oliver (only two) has no problem finding and choosing his clothes without my help. Whew!
You can help your kids put clothes where they belong (and then find them later) for only $9.99 CDN. ReStickables can be purchased from the Easy Daysies website as well as from these stores.

I like the Magnetic Fridge schedule – it would save a ton of post it notes from the landfill at my house!
I like the restickables (in orange). I’ve just been starting to work with my son in trying to have him put away his own things. These look like they might help.
I like the Restickables. They are a great idea. We are reorganizing our granddaughter’s room & they would help to teach her where to put her clothes instead of all over the floor!
I love the Magnetic Daily Schedules. How brilliant to not always have to remind the children about what they need to be doing. Especially on busy mornings.
Oh the Chores and Rewards is wonderful. I have some nephews that need to know about the concept of chores.
I am in love with restickables! Anything that helps me dig my way out of the baskets and baskets of laundry, while teaching my 5 year old how to be responsible and help out is a winner with me!
I like the restickables too – I think it would be fun to teach your child with them!
I don’t have just one that I love…these are all just such wonderful ideas! For kids whom are going away you can stick their names on to their belongings, They are great for chore reminders etc etc I can go on and on.

For children whom are just learning the concept of growing up and taking responsiblity these are PERFECT!!! It teaches them and they surely cannot forget anything that’s for sure
I like the restickables (tri-colour). My 19-month old daughter is so gung-ho on helping me with putting away clothes or anything in general. She thinks its a game!! The restickables would be fun for her to learn where things go.
I like the Magnetic fridge schedule.
I like the magnetic fridge schedule.. anything to help me get organized is a keeper!
My vote today is for the fridge schedule!

I love the Every Day Kit. What a great reminder system!
The restickables are a great idea to teach the kids organizational skills!
The everyday kit looks neat as well!
The fridge magnet schedule looks cool. My friend uses it for her little guy and it works great:)
chores and rewards
The Everyday Kit is a great idea as well!
Fridge Schedule:)
My favorite product is the magnetic schedules; my younger son struggles with tasks he’s supposed to do and is not much of a reader. I think the easy to see and understand pictures would be very helpful to him and I could put them right where he can see them!
The fridge schedle would work great for my entire family.
The Every Day kit would be great to remind kids of the day’s schedules.
I like the Easy Daysies Start Kit. I think it would help my 5 year old grand-daughter not become side-tracked when she was getting ready to leave the house. With the Apple Tree Fold and Go we could use it for her little brother when you got up.
Do you think the Restickables would help my husband learn where his clean clothes go? LOL.
I love this! Thank you very much for the possibility of winning!
This is neat! twittered!
The fridge magnet would be a great organizational tool for the entire family:-)
