3 Easy Hacks to Tackle Toy Chaos

Organize toys and games to create a stylish playroom

Tired of tripping on your kids’ toys? There is no other pain like stepping barefoot on a Lego®! Don’t worry, we’re here to help. When kids are playing, it can look like a tornado has torn through the room, but it doesn’t have to stay that way. mDesign provides a plethora of storage tools to organize all of your kids’ toys whether they’re 6 or 16. Here are 3 tips to get you started.

Provide Easy Access for Daily Use

For toys used on a daily basis, it’s important to keep these accessible for kids. Creating storage so they can see and grab their favorite toys on their own will help them feel independent and cut down on the number of times you hear “MOM!” called from the other room. Plus, if they can reach to pull out their toys, there’s no excuse for not putting them away! Here are some of our favorite ways to organize toys while keeping them visible:

Create Concealed Storage for a Cleaner Look

Another great way to organize toys is to create storage that hides the toys and provides a clean, picturesque view. This can be done by adding bins and boxes to existing closets and shelves, or by adding cubby units and furniture pieces to create extra storage. This is also a great way to add a pop of color to any room! Here are our recommendations for concealed toy organizers:
