Toy Storage
Thursday, May 24th, 2007Today I’m trying to get organized. Between the play mat, play nest, Bumbo seat, bouncer and the dozens of toys lying around the house, I can’t walk in a straight line through any room in the house. I finally ended up grabbing an empty cardboard box and stuffing all the toys into it. So between and Bea waking up from her nap, the house is clean. I started doing some searching for good toy storage and came across a few things I liked.
At Parents Hack, I came across a recommendation for Via Toy Box. They have some great things! My favourite is the Play Kitchen that doubles as a storage box.
And I also liked that the boxes they sell don’t look like they could potentially give some one an epileptic fit. they have nice colours and aren’t covered with animals and cartoon characters. You don’t want to have to change the furniture in your kid’s room every year and since they grow out of stuff so fast, neutral but fun is probably the best way to go. However, to even buy from Via Toy Box you have to have some spare cash handy.
Some other more traditional storage units I found:
Little Tikes American Wood Storage Unit
Canvas Totes
Bookshelf Organizer
What do you use to store your kid’s toys? Any original ideas?
