7 BRILLIANT CHEAP TOY STORAGE IDEAS

Any parent of adolescent boys will know right away what that means. There’s just something about bare feet and their ability to find the one and only Lego in the room at the least opportune moment.

Let me just say that a mom’s balancing skill has not been fully tested until she has stepped on a Lego, in bare feet, in the middle of the night, all while holding a sleeping baby. It’s a skill only a mom (or a dad for that matter) can fully appreciate. It’s true all kids have toys (in the first world at least), and if you have toys, then odds are you have toy clutter.

This is a great way to use what you already have on hand to contain those toys in a cheap and easy way. It’s also a fun way for your kids to take a more active role in the cleanup, no matter what their age.

1. TOYS THAT DOUBLE AS STORAGE.

This might just be one of my favorite ways to simply store just about anything in your home, especially toys. Even young children can help to clean up stuffed animals, balls, or dolls when a basket is a container in a playroom.

2. USE LAUNDRY BASKETS TO SORT LIKE TOYS

I love books for kids and the large variety that is available for every age. The problem is that not all books are created equal. Some are durable and can be played with even by very young children, while others are meant for parent’s hands only, and those special reading times before bed.

3. USE DIY WOODEN BINS TO HOLD HEAVY BOOKS.

It is crazy how many pieces come with toys today. Each set seems to have so many teeny tiny parts, and it can be tricky keeping all of those little things in one spot. To help, I love to repurpose items, giving them a second and incredibly useful life in the playroom.
