Are you tired of tripping over that toy car or stuffed animal and dream of a day when there can be more organization in your child’s room or play area? It is actually a very attainable dream! Teaching your child how to pick up after themselves is a very important part of their early development. Its never too late to teach your child, however, the younger the child is, the easier it will be. Consistency is the key. It is crucial that you hold your ground and have your child pick up their toys every time. Before you know it, it will become routine for your child!
It is important to make this fun. One great way to teach them how to pick up after themselves is by turning it into a game. You can get a stop watch out and tell your child, “Lets see how fast you can pick up your cars!” When they are done picking up their cars, tell them their time and praise them on how fast they did it. Keep that up until all of their toys are put away. Another fun way is to play a special song or make up a song that you and your child can sing together while they are picking up their toys.
Having a proper toy storage solution is also key to organization and teaching your child to put away their toys. Are you looking to organize a small bedroom or a large playroom or daycare? If you have a larger area, a great option is the Arch 2 Sided Storage. You can display all of their toys and games on one side of the shelf and their books on the other side. This is also great if you have a couple of children. You can store one child’s toys on one side and your other child’s toys on the other. It can also be used to divide a large room into two separate play areas!

Maybe you have a smaller area? In these cases, it is great to maximize space! Look for storage solutions such as the Daisy Double Storage Bench. Not only is it a toy box, but it is also a seating bench for your child, where they can sit back and read their favorite book. Teaching your kids how to put their toys back in the toy box after playing is an easy and great first step to keeping organized!
