Small Toy Containers

Simple and Cheap Toy Storage

5 kids, a billion and one toys, and no place to keep it all organized, especially all the tiny itty bitty toys like small Legos, toy food, soldiers, cars ect. Also I'm sure you can see that we have this toy shelf inside one of the closets where we happen to have some extra space making the place seem even less cluttered.  So we took a trip to the dollar store and purchased 12 containers (the ones with blue lids as you can see on the shelf). Voila...4 hours of sorting through toy boxes, under beds, and under couches and we found every little toy in the house, as well as organized the rest of them. Here is the picture of the amazing simple and cheap little toy storage containers....

And yes, my children actually keep these toys put away, and if they break a bucket then they have to use their allowance to buy a new one, so they are careful with them and don't just leave them on the floor.
