The toys are gunna go on vacation 🤣 hahaha I love that! So many great tips here lady! Love the mesh laundry bags and the scarf holder is genius. Thanks so much for collabing with me on this! It was so much fun ❤️
Yes! Toy rotation has saved my sanity! When my son even has a birthday, we put some of the new ones away to get out later so it's as if he just got another new toy every time! It's life-changing!
I have been a long time follower of yours. Like, “battle of the drugstore mascaras” fan! I’d love to see you revamp that series in to motherhood. Like “battle of the sippycups”. Test on price, how well liquid comes out, ease of cleaning, etc! Stuff like that would be so fun!
Ooh, I second this! Sippy cup battles are a thing in my house. Like "This one is for water only, because it drips." Even some cups of the same brand but different designs (looking at you, Munchkin brand).
I’m sure I’m not your target demographic, over 50 and no kids. That being said... I want to thank you for your videos! They are informative and fun and I can see all the hard work you put into each one. I am always so happy when I get a notification of a new video from you, I know I’m going to have a few minutes of happiness in store for me. I am a organizer and labeler from way back and I love learning new tips! So thank you, thank you for being a light in a very troubled time, the joy you provide is very much appreciated!!
My kids(2 girls and 2 boys) have to many toys. I noticed that they play waaay more at my parents house. They have 1 little box of toys with few wooden building blocks, 1 barbie, 2 cars and few stuffed animals. They play for hours. At home they just make a mess
@@ivonafiri9269 that's very true! I recently did a huge declutter of my kids toys and got rid of several bags. They have actually been playing with their toys again. I think it was overwhelming for them to have so many things.. the same as I was when my clothes were out of hand
As I was watching your video you talked about stuff animals. I wanted to tell about another hack I did. I bought a bag thing off Amazon that you can stuff with stuffed animals and it turns into something like a bean bag chair when you are done. I like it cause it works for a reading spot for my toddler and her friends
😍😍😍 These toy organization ideas are great & your son is adorable! I’m posting my toy organization video today too! We have an organizer that will change your life!!! God bless you & all your viewers 😘xoxo Fernelle
When Your kids are very good behaviour all the time and always taking good care of their things, keeping their rooms very clean, loving their favorite things and want to make nice childhood collections of their things: books, clothes, toys, video games, clothes, DVDs and etc, then donataing is very wrong thing to do. If You have few space then storage boxes and shelves will help You out and Your kids will be very happy and thankful then, if they can keep their favourite things. Childhood things are very valuable and it is very sad, if they won’t see them anymore in their life. Every child should have the right to keep their things, if they can take good care of them all the time!!!
I do toy rotation too, I have a two year old, and I usually rotate weekly, but if I see a toy isn't being played with at all I'll switch it out mid-week. It really surprises me how few toys my daughter actually needs in rotation at once. Like literally 4 activities is plenty. I currently have a doll family, crayons, tea set and xylophone and that was enough for her for like the whole week. If she gets bored mid week I will also add something else if she's grumpy/teething and I need some peace lol.
Thank you for mentioning how kids pull out all of the books! lol So many organizers don't mention that and it makes me feel like I"m the only one with the kidS that act like STITCH when it comes to books! lol
LOVE this! Not a parent, but a teacher. So many of these tips are brilliant for teachers. Especially the pieces basket, it's actually something I've always done.
Awesome! We adopted my grandson so I’m parenting for the second time. He’s 5, I’m 45. It’s so different this time, I had three littles pretty close in age first round. But he is an only child. Toys and books are a major issue, as well as boredom with those things. I’m going to create a space in the garage so we can start rotating. Thank you!
I LOVE the pieces basket!! I have 4 boys so u can imagine all the toys we have lol!! I cant even tell u how many pieces of toys I find all the time!! I'm definitely doing that trick!! Thank you!
1. You look beautiful 2. Need that lemon rug immediately 3. The scarf rack is genius! I’ve been looking for something to organize stuffed animals. 4. Stay healthy and happy
I get a weekly visit with my almost 2 year old great grand daughter. I have a ton of things for her at my house. I need a good way to store toys. Love the spice rack idea. Weed out baby items. Shelf instead of toy box. I like the puzzle rack.
We started rotating toys about a month ago and it’s made cleanup and organization so. much. easier. I couldn’t get a handle on how to store all of his toys together so once I pulled some of them out, I’m so much less stressed and he has discovered some new favorites that he never cared about before!
Totally believe in this-I just did this yesterday!! 😂 Our grands lived with us for a bit, and now they just visit, so I paired down, made bins rather “invisible” under furniture in the living room, put some in storage to rotate, and donated a huge box. It looks so much better! Masking tape and a sharpie work great for labels too! 😋 Great work on your channel and in your home! Blessings! 😻
Great tips. Love how I can relate having very similar house to yours, imperfect yet cozy and homey, unfinished basement, has some unique style and you personally worked on it to look like that, not following too many trends. Often I look at other people houses and compare... like why doesn’t my house look like a mansion... fancy kitchens, bathrooms, beautiful basements. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home. :)
OMG thank you! I totally know what you mean I see beautiful master bathrooms and walk in closets and am like OMG beautiful I wish. But I love our quirky little home. I feel like it just feels like home so much more to us even if it's not perfect :)
Toy rotation worked really well when I had two little ones close in age. As soon as we added a third and fourth kiddo it became very hard to have that type of rotation with different ages and stages not to mention safety for younger ones with older ones toys.
Yup, especially in our home which is so small and two share a room. (Close enough in age) but they totally need there own things with their variable personalities.
My mom will not stop bringing us toys because she works at a thrift store and gets a lot of new things. I hate it. My daughter has too much stuff already and isn’t even 10 months yet.
I just started getting my son involved in the rotation, he gets to pick the toy to keep out for each category for the rotation and he can ask to swap when he wants to. We did 1 item (not a single toy but the set) for the categories he loves - building toys - pretend play - vehicles - character toys - active play and he also gets to pick a puzzle, coloring or activity book, and play doh is always available on request (that gets supervised). This time he picked his play food, train set, building set, paw patrol characters, a sling shot nerf toy. He played with his trains for 90 minutes straight last night. Yay!
This is something I have needed help on! Thanks for the upload 🤗 I'll probably have a busy afternoon reorganizing my daughters room and starting some toy rotation 🙌
Do i put most toys together in one place, then go through them?? Theyre everywhere! 4 kids, tons of rooms, tons of small toys. What do i do?? They play with seemingly everything. There is so much.
Great ideas! Going to try the laundry zipper and scarf holder idea. I've semi done toy rotation. My version is throw half in a basket and put of reach! I've gotten lazy with it now, having two kids, it's harder with needing different age toys and making sure the toys for my son are safe for my daughter. Love the content 😊
The thing is, my kids throw all the pieces everywhere so it won’t help me. They grab all the kitchen toys and throw it then get their Barbies and Barbie accessories and throw them. Then they get everything and just throw it. It’s too much still
Fantastic ideas! Thank you for your direct, concise, and extremely helpful videos! Your channel is one of my new favorites. Love the idea of toy rotation. This momma has got some work to do! Lol!!
My kids room was so messy the nitrile heck and then just just work and it's now just good and simple and so beautiful thanks for your thanks for your work ok bye
There was one idea I saw it’s the unit with different baskets and you leave one empty. Each day they put the toys they want to play with in that basket and that’s their toys for the day so they know what toys that’s there and they’ve the choice but I think the toy unit should be in another room so they don’t get tempted to grab other toys but it means less mess and easier to clean up but I know one person every so often she’ll take a toy they’re not playing with or don’t seem interested in and hide it for awhile normally they kid won’t even notice then rather then buying a new toy you give them the toy you hid so it’s like a new toy and they’re more likely to play with it
I went to watch a video of yours from about a year ago on RU-vid's recommendation. Only to be shocked and horrified to see you were promoting myka stauffer's channel in it. You know, the crazy witch who decided to "rehome" her adopted son. WTF!?! Why hasn't that video been taken down or edited? Do you still support her? Because if so, you are no longer one of my favorite vloggers and will seriously be canceled.
How few do you need? Because if you go for their online shopping you can get them by the case. You can always split them up to other friends and relatives.
Super helpful. I have 3 kids who are spaced out in age, 9, 5, and 2 so I’m over overwhelmed with toys and saving older kids toys for younger kids etc, I’m going to do some storing and rotating today. This gave me some good ideas to start. Thanks
I love this setup and completely agree but we are the exact opposite🤦🏻♀️. My son is 5 so I’m not even sure how to change that and he’s constantly into everything even the stuff I try to put up in the basement🙄. So essentially I’ve tried this and failed miserably🤦🏻♀️. We have way too much and it’s totally my fault
This is an excellent video and should have AT LEAST an additional 500,000 views. With two little girls, I am drowning in toys and just little girl stuff. I also home school (Montessori style for my younger daughter), so I loved your tips. I'm going to do every single thing you did in this video. Thank you, Kallie!
Hello I’m a new momma my daughter is turning 8months on August 11 but I’m struggling on finding good toys that are safe but help her developmental growth what toys would you recommend?
hello...fairly new to your channel. You have the cutest child and he's seems to have the coolest clothes. Can you do some baby/toddler clothes hauls? Not sure if you have made any in the past, but would love if you could for some inspiration on dressing a toddler boy.
Oh I love the painters tape measuring trick! That's super clever. We need to Marie Kondo my toddlers toys (some have moved to her baby brother). We were gifted some cloth cube kid storage, and I have come to the conclusion that I loathe them. They're not well made, constantly crumpling, and you can't see into them! We just pulled down a bunch of dollhouse toys to rotate for my kiddo, so she still has her doll house but now she has "new" critters for it.
Thanks so much for sharing this with us! Moms are just so amazing. It warms my heart thinking of all the moms across the world that put so much work and care into raising their children in a loving way. Thanks again!!
This was so helpful we’ve lived in our house for 18 years and the only one person who is playing with the toys but four kids worth of stuff and we’re now trying to move across the country and it’s so overwhelming and this video really motivated me thank you ☺️
I just moved into a new house. There's not a lot of storage space for extra toys. We downsized but I love the basket idea, and I had already bought some. I was un sure how to organize them for easy play, I found that part of the video must helpful. I always love your content.
Thank you for sharing these tips! I am very unorganised, and I'm not really sure how to clean. I would love it if you could make some more videos, or direct me to some of your videos that you have already made teaching me how to clean and organize. Please, I really need your help. Tia
Thank you for another great video. I have 2 kids and our toys are far from organized. I will definitely be doing some now. Thanks for the motivation. Also do you have the link for the muscle shelf? I've been on the hunt for something like this
