Can we tell you a secret? Colin is quite a messy person… we know for a fact that his mum has threatened him with the BIN BAG before.

Do you know what we mean?

(She didn’t threaten to put him in the bin bag incase you are worried… just his stuff. No Colins were harmed in the making of this module!)

Anyway, you know when you have been told to go and tidy up your room…but you don’t. You get distracted by something else and do that instead. Then when they come to check how tidy your room is they are cross because you’ve made more of a mess instead of making it any tidier? That is when Colins mum brings out the BIN BAG threat. It sounds something like

“YOU”VE GOT 5 MINUTES TO GET THIS SORTED OR I’M BRINGING THE BIN BAG IN AND EVERYTHING THAT’S LYING ON THE FLOOR IS GOING IN THE BIN!”

Please tell us it isn’t just our mums that use this threat?

The thing is, we all need a good clear out sometimes. Sometimes we just have too much stuff lying around. It might be toys you have grown out of, things that just lie around or even thing you just can’t be bothered to tidy up.

But lots of things you have might be useful, so we have to make careful choices about what to keep and what to ditch.

Are you ready for a challenge? YES? Great! Let’s get started!
