This toy box is incredible.  It has more room inside than any other toy box I’ve ever seen.  The lid comes off completely, which is very convenient.  It comes in blue (pictured) or pink (I bought both). 

The best part?  It’s only $59.99. 

I got mine through Little Tikes when they were having an online special for free shipping on any toy box you buy.  If you’re interested, sign up for the Little Tikes emails, so you hear about the best sales.

Have you found any other toy boxes you really like?

I’m really surprised anymore at how many times I hear of houses being built or bought specifically with a play room in mind. An entire room just for the kids to use to play with and store their toys. In addition to the toys in their rooms and, very often, also spread around the house. When we were young (insert geezer voice here), you kept your toys in your room. There might be a few around the living room, but they were, for the most part, in your room. The one you shared with your sister.

Anyway, it seems that the issue of the toys encroaching on the adult space in the house is a big one. So big that people are designing products and such specifically to store toys in the main areas of the house in ways that can’t be seen when the kids aren’t playing. An article at canada.com shares some tips and solutions for this situation.

Sherry of Inside Motherhood shares her family’s solution to kid clutter in the living room. We went that route for awhile, but still felt a bit overwhelmed with it all. Now, one of the shelves on the bookcase is for the kids’ books, and the rest of the mess is supposed to stay in their rooms. If there are too many toys in their rooms, then there’s probably just too many toys. Time for a yard sale or Goodwill.

What’s your family’s solution to avoid toy clutter?
