Toy Storage Solution

For Slim Down Summer I am tackling the kids toy mess.   Today, just start.  It may take more than one day so pick one thing~ a room or area and Slim Down the toys.  Maybe it is just starting with a drawer or one bin.

Slim Down Toys ~
Start:    Take a paper bag or cardboard  box and make one for each thing:  toys missing parts, the parts, donate, keep and “who knows”!   Starting with a box or bag then  you can stop at anytime and restart again.  Take a 1/2 hour a day if necessary.

Sort first:  it is less time consuming to sort first.  Then, go back and assemble or find missing parts etc.

Storage Solution:  Use my method of toys storage.

Toys can be a huge mess with all the little parts.  And I find the kids don’t play with toys that are a big mess.  My favorite tip for an easy toy storage solution is, a plastic shoe rack.  It  easily hangs on the back of a door, front of a closet or even tacked on the wall!  Nice and easy. Kids can find the toys and they are kept off the floor.   Storage using spaces other that shelves or closet space are big space savers!organizer

 

There are many styles of plastic shoe racks starting a really low prices:
