The trend of toy boxes was at peak in past, but now parents
have compliment it with new ideas, now they do not like that typical wooden and
cumbersome boxes to impede their rooms. Now days, there are too many
alternatives available in the market to be used as toy storage. Here, I have
suggested 5 ideas that work best.
Shelves with
removable bins:
These shelves are a great option to be opting for. You may
divide these shelves into squared compartments and then place baskets in each compartment.
It will provide you a huge space in smaller area. You can save different toys
in different squares so that your kid may pick the desired one easily. To differentiate,
you may put labels on the baskets or drawers so that your kid may not clutter
the other ones and can place it back easily from where it belongs. It is the
best way to maintain an organized room and develop the same instinct into your
kids.
Kid’s beds with storage are a best alternative to be used as
toy storage. If you cannot buy a high class mid sleeper bed then you may also convert an existing bed into
storage bed by just simply putting a drag-able drawer underneath it.
Storage seating:
You may also use storage seating for storing kids toys. The well
known ottomans can serve this purpose best. Your guest will have no idea that
the ottoman on which he is sitting or has placed feet contains kid’s toys. Sofas
or sofa beds with storage option are
also a very good option because they are larger enough and can contain any sort
of toys.
Cabinets and
armoires:
You may use cabinets and armoires to store the toys. These armoires
and cabinets already exist in your homes so you do not need to spend a lot on
it. The racks which you are using to place DVDs and CDs can be complimented to
store toys. You may also put boxes in armoires so that toys get minimum
scratches.
Baskets:
Picnic basket laundry baskets are huge, and very handy, you
may use them to store your toys. If you and your kid put clothing occasionally
in the laundry baskets then it may be a big source of toy storage. Same is the
case with picnic baskets because they are used once or twice a month. These baskets are huge enough and provide a
wide area for storage. You may simply put the toys in it on day end and de-clutter
your room in few minutes.
Mesh bags:
These bags are best to be used when your kid uses too many
toys while paying. It makes it easier for your kid to find the desired toy. You
may hang these bags with ceiling or at the door back. These bags are available
in market in too many colors and designs. You may select anyone which your kid
likes.
These are some suggestions to help you out so that you may
not feel yourself as a prisoner to the old fashioned, bulky and chunky wooden
toy boxes.
