Toy Storage - help me get organized!

julieb00lie · October 2011

We have a toy room, but it is just a big heap of toys lined up against the walls. I want to get it organized. What do you do to sort and organize your play rooms/area? Do you have book shelves, baskets, drawers, etc? Pictures welcomed!

I have two of these in our family room and it works great for us:

We have one of these in our living area https://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5983466

I need another one for DS's room, and a book shelf for his books. We are a work in progress!

We're big fans of the Expedit series from Ikea

We have something similar to this in the living room and in each of the kids rooms. For the kid's rooms, we have several baskets that fit into the squares to help hold/organize smaller items/toys.

I got these bins at Ikea. They have wheels, but they stack on each other (with the lid). I put soft toys in one, biggish toys in another, and small toys in a third. (We're almost ready for a fourth bin...)

I also like Ikea's hanging baskets for kids. (great for soft toys, dress-ups)
