Closet World

A household with young children is a home with toys that can easily clutter up every room in the house. Even the bathtub becomes a potential playground. With planning, organization, and some inexpensive storage items, toys can be contained. Closet World offers custom-made solutions for home organization and tips for keeping toys from becoming clutter.
Infants only play with the items placed within their reach. Keep the baby’s favorite toys in a small backpack and bring it wherever the baby goes. Donate excess and duplicate infant toys.
By the time a child is 2 years old, controlling toy clutter becomes a challenge. Age-appropriate toys such as puzzles and blocks have multiple pieces. Throwing all the toys in a large box isn’t an effective way to store them because of all the small pieces. Keep puzzles on shelves, just one or two within the child’s reach; and keep track of all the pieces. Rotate them every week or so. The child will get much more enjoyment out of toys that don’t have lost parts.
For larger items such as stuffed animals, large toys trucks, and dolls, a large box is helpful. Large, stackable storage bins are inexpensive and ideal for use as toy boxes. It’s best not to have boxes with hinged lids because they can close on little fingers.
As your child gets older, get rid of outgrown toys.
Keep bathtub toys in a net and hang them in the clothes hamper when not in use.
When organizing toys in a child’s room, avoid arrangements that make for easy climbing.
A bin console is an excellent way to organize toys, and – whether with pullout baskets or labeled pullout plastic bins – it can be useful for your child from infancy through high school.
