Sanity Saver: Containing the Kids Toys

If your like any parent, you have dealt with this problem: toys, toys, toys - everywhere! 

No worries. An easy, cheap and sanity saving way to contain the toys (even if you already have a toy box) is to place like toys in shoe box containers. These are stack-able, clear containers that can be used for WAY more than just shoes. They stack well in toy boxes - as an easy way for your kids to access the toy that they are looking for. 

You can purchase these clear shoe containers almost anywhere, including the dollar store, Target and Walmart. I personally use these to hold my daughters Barbie dolls and my son's action figures and Legos. Its the best $10 I've ever spent.

Another sanity saver for little toys? A hanging shoe organizer. (Hmmmm...I'm sensing a theme here) Just hang the organizer on a door in the playroom or kids room and place dolls, action figures, Lego sets, etc in the separate compartments. You can purchase these at any dollar store, Target, Walmart or Container Store.
