: Just how do I get my little boys' toys organized? They have a lot of little toys, and a lot of big toys.Help!

I have three children under 5 and I understand. My grandmother gave me some great advice. I put some of their toys away in bins.
The remaining toys I keep in clear bins with labels so the kids no
which place to return them to. I also put pictures so they know
where the toys go. For stuffed animals I use big tubs. The three
drawer plastic containers are great as well. My husband put shelves
in our playroom to allow places for bigger toys. I try to rotate
the toys on a monthly basis. Before Christmas or birthdays we
purge the toys and give away the ones the kids no longer desire.
I let them decide which toys go. We try to give them to a worthwhile
charity. If an item is broken it is repaired or thrown away. I hope
this helps.
