2020 Home Organization Challenge: Week 12 Toys & Hobbies

March 21, 2020
 

Welcome to week 12 of the Home Organization Challenge. I know things are stressful right now, but we must try to keep our lives as normal as possible. Our homes still need cleaned, the food still needs cooked, and our kids still need a schedule. We must keep it together. As the saying goes, “This too shall pass”.

This week, we are organizing our kids toys and/or our hobbies (sewing, planning, crafts, home gym, etc). So far, we’ve organized the laundry room, home office, kitchen, pantry, master closetmaster bedroommaster bathroomliving roomdining room, linen closet, and kids closets. It’s time to have a little fun and create an organized toy or hobby space in your home. I’m sure you can get the kids to help out this week.

My kids no longer play with toys, so this post is here simply to inspire you. Our “toys” are in our home gym. My family loves to exercise and that’s where we spend a lot of our free time. This is what our toy room looked like, when our kids were smaller.

 
 

I always kept their toys organized in these bins (from Target). The shelf is from Ikea. I labeled the bins clearly, so there wasn’t any confusion as to where things needed to go. 

 
 

They picked up after themselves and it always stayed fairly clean. This is a great organizing solution families who have children in this stage of their lives. 

 


 

Now, our “toy” area is our home gym. Here’s a peek into the space. You can see details on this blog post.

 
 

Here are few more blog posts that will inspire you to get toys organized.
