1. When its evening, and before you go to bed, both
of you clean your room. If it is her stuff- tell her that you will help clean
a little if she will do her share. Then help with something like picking up
laundry while she does the rest, if it is in fact her stuff.
2. Shelves or bins are nice little places to put
"treasures". I find that all of my children love to keep a lot of
"treasure". To me, it is just junk. To them it is priceless. Have your mom
buy a plastic bin of drawers or perhaps a small bookshelf to store things.
Remind your sister that this is where her stuff goes. If she leaves it out
and its driving you nuts. Take a few minutes to put her things in her bins
for her as a favor.
3. Split your room in sections. Give your sister
a section with her as a willing participant. Allow her to keep track of that
section of the room. If it gets messy, its her side. Remind her gently that
you enjoy keeping your room clean and patiently remind her to clean up.
