There’s a saying that says, “Parenting is like folding a fitted sheet. No one knows how to do it.” While there’s some truth that nothing can ultimately prepare you for being a parent and every child is different with his or her own set of challenges, with trial and error, you are successfully raising your child. Now, with a little practice (and these secret steps), we’re convinced you can conquer folding a fitted sheet, too!

The Secret Steps of How to Fold a Fitted Sheet
1. Start with your sheet inside out and put your hands inside two corners to hold the long side of the sheet in front of you.

2. Bring your palms together and fold the right corner over the left one.

3. Switch hands and put your right hand into the corner. Use your free left hand to straighten the edges.

4. Put your left hand into the other corner. Bring your palms together again and fold the right corner over the left one as you did in step 2. Straighten the edge with your right hand.

5. Put your right hand in the corner and straighten with your free left hand.

6. Fold the side down to create a rectangle.

7. Lay the sheet down with the edges facing up. Fold the sheet into thirds lengthwise.

8. Fold in thirds again to complete the process and store it neatly in your closet.
