Early Childhood

If you're tired of stepping on legos every time you venture into your kids' playroom, these quick tips will help you banish the clutter and get organized.

Throw Away and Donate

Go through all of your kids’ playthings and donate the toys they no longer play with to a local charity. If toys are broken or have missing parts, simply throw them away.

Install Wall Hooks

Wall Hooks can be used to hang kids’ dramatic play items such as dress-up clothes, purses and hats. Hooks should be installed low enough for children to reach their playthings without the help of adults.

Use Plastic Bins and labels

Plastic bins are an inexpensive way to store small toys such as pegs, crayons and hot wheel. Labeling the bins will make retrieval and cleanup a breeze for your kiddos.

If children aren’t able to read, you can take pictures of the items and attach them to the appropriate bin. The labeled plastic containers can be stored on a low shelf so children can easily access them.

After following these tips, your kids will have a newly organized playroom that they'll enjoy.
