How to organize the storage of children’s toys

Sooner or later, all parents have the question of how to organize the storage of children’s toys so that there is always order in the house. Therefore, it is important to think over a storage system when arranging a children’s room. Firstly, toys should be sorted into categories – constructors, dishes, cars, educational toys, cubes, and so on. Secondly, the storage areas for toys must be accessible to the child so that he can independently get and clean them,

Choose small boxes for small items, and bulky boxes for large ones. It is good if all storage containers can be marked with an inscription or a picture.

Ideas for storing toys in the nursery

Open shelving . Special containers for toys are placed in it: baskets, boxes or pull-out plastic containers.

 

RECOMMENDED

Alternatively, you can offer the Trufast storage system (IKEA) with light plastic containers that the child can easily pull out, carry and put back.

 

A loft bed is a great solution for a small children’s room. The sleeping place for the child is located on the “second floor”, and for storing toys, you can use racks / shelves or a ladder with step modules.

Space under furniture.  For a small children’s room, it is practical to combine toy storage systems with other interior items. It is very convenient to place drawers or fabric baskets under the bed.

You can equip a cozy place to relax under the window – a bench, under which drawers for toys can be placed.

Alternatively, you can suggest organizing a place under the table where stationery, board games or books will lie.

Of particular interest in the question of where to store children’s toys are poufs with folding seats. They can hide soft toys, a construction set, and many more useful things.

Hidden opportunities. Walls, doors and ends of cabinets – all these surfaces can be used for placing organizers for storing various little things and soft toys.

You yourself can sew wall pockets from thick beautiful fabric or polyethylene. Choose the size depending on what you plan to store in them. For example, these textile pockets  will become an original decor for a children’s room:

Shelves and shelves, different sizes and depths. It is important that the child himself can get everything that is stored on them.

Baskets. A very nice option is to store toys in the child’s room in wicker ( Aliexpress ) or textile baskets ( Aliexpress ). In them, you can remove those toys that he temporarily does not use.

Boxes on wheels Another great idea. The child will be able to independently move them throughout the play area. The boxes can be purchased or made by yourself .

Box. Perfect for organizing the space of a children’s room. The chest is usually large enough to hold many children’s toys.

Bag bag . Two in one: the toy storage bag is also a play mat. Storing Lego parts, cars, balls, bricks will cease to be a problem – all this is easily assembled in one motion.

Storing materials for creativity

Create a creative area to streamline your child’s creativity. It could be just a wall along which containers of pencils and crayons are hung. Cover it with wallpaper or paint with a chalkboard effect. As an option – a children’s table. Hang the works of a young artist on the wall to which it adjoins – this way you will solve the issue of keeping children’s drawings .
