Morrissey agrees that Legos need their own storage system. She likes this ten-drawer cart because “the long, shallow drawers make it easier [for kids] to find the exact pieces they’re looking for when building their own creations.” The colored drawers can also guide kids where to put different color pieces.
Aron says she’s “a big fan of Container Store’s clear plastic bins for their durability and versatility. [They] are easy to label, clean, stack, and use for various needs from clothing to shoes to food to paper products to bathroom goods.” See-through boxes cut down on time spent digging through bins to find exactly what you need. Kienzle also likes underbed storage bins that “can double as something else, like a nightstand, seating, or a surface to work on.”
If you want kids to get involved with putting away their toys and keeping their room clean, it’s important to choose methods that’ll be easy for them to use. “One general tip is to remember that younger kids generally want to be able to drag and dump whatever bin is holding their toys, so keeping things in drawers is not necessarily so user-friendly for them,” says Schrier. She likes this soft bin for stuffed animals and balls. Its simple design and color reduces visual clutter, as well.
Keep favorite teddy bears and other stuffed animals on display in the kids’ room with this hammock, recommended by Abramovici. “Kids can think of it as a game to toss [toys] up and land them in the hammock — motivating kids to clean up,” she says. “Parents have more control of which toys can be in play at any given time, since all the toys in the hammock aren’t out on kid level anymore.”
Whether you’re using bins, shelves, or boxes, nearly all the organizers we spoke with recommended labeling your storage so kids know where everything goes. Morahan says labeling “really helps kids get excited to put things away in the right spot.” Cornetta prefers chalkboard-style stickers that can be erased and rewritten, since kids quickly grow out of certain toys. For little ones who aren’t reading yet, try drawing a picture on the label or sticking on a Polaroid photo.
