I’m on a mission to get my house organized. It won’t be easy, but if I tackle one thing at a time, I just may be able to do it. Or, so I hope!
Since Baby Noah will soon be on the move, I decided it would be best to start on trying to find some way to keep the Magnetix, Legos and K’nex off the floor, since strangling my boys is not an option! You know, my twins got at least one set of each to add to their ever-growing collections…. That means way more little pieces to attempt to keep out of Noah’s reach.
I’m still in the research stage, but so far I have found some incredible ways to keep these little pieces organized.
This Acrylic Organizer Tower has ten drawers and sells for $27.99 at Organize-It. A major downside to this type of storage is the height – I’m just afraid that, left to rowdy boys, it would be knocked over way too much, thus eliminating it’s usefulness.
I found this Box 4 Blocks… It really is quite incredible — It has three storage levels, each with different sized grids so pieces fall into the various trays and stay organized. It was the winner of the prestigious “Organizers Choice Award” for “Best New Home Organizing Product” at NAPO National Conference and Expo. It sells for $27.70 at box4blocks.com. This one looks pretty neat!
Any other ideas for keeping small toys organized and stored??? How do YOU keep all of the Legos, Magnetix and K’nex off the floor at your house???

My eight year old adores legos, has been collecting them for years and therefore we have have way to many to contain. Recently, we made a trip to the Container store and they designed an elfa system lego table w/drawers for us which is great as it serves as both a activity table and storage.
I sweep and vaccum them up.
