When Can You Child Start Using a Toy Box

The appropriate time for a child to start using a toy box is less about a specific age and more about their developmental stage and ensuring safety. Safety is paramount, especially with young children. Toy boxes with heavy, unhinged lids pose a significant risk of injury, so safety hinges and ventilation holes are essential. Very young children should always be supervised around any storage container.

Developmentally, toddlers around 18 months to 2 years begin to develop the necessary motor skills to participate in cleanup, though their ability to organise independently varies. For very young children, open bins or baskets are often safer and more accessible. As children grow, they can transition to more structured storage like toy shelves and cabinets.

How to Choose The Right Organiser For Your Children's Toys

Keeping your kid's room organised and clean can be hard, but with the right storage you can ensure that your little one learns how to keep their room clean and neat. Choosing the right type of toy storage and organisers can make a huge difference. When choosing toy organisers, consider your child's age and developmental stage, the amount of space, safety features and most importantly, the type of storage. Here's a list of what is available to you-

Toy Boxes and Chests

You can opt for the classic designs that have a large, single space for storing various toys or go for the modern options that have safety features, soft-close lids and ventilation. Kids' toy boxes and chest offer a large capacity making it easy for a quick cleanup. However, keep in mind that toys can get easily jumbled or tangled up in these boxes. So, larger toys or plushies can be stored in toy boxes and chests easily.

Storage Bins and Baskets

Choose between plastic or fabric bins. Plastic bins are durable, stackable, and often come in various colors. Fabric baskets are softer, lightweight, and available in numerous patterns. Both options are great for storing toys, but their smaller capacity might not be the best option for large or heavy toys.

Shelving Units and Bookcases

Open shelves allow children to easily see and access their toys. There's also the option of getting cube storage. So, instead of getting an open shelf, you can opt for a modular unit with compartments for bins and baskets. Bookcases can be a great place to store books and any toys you want to display.

Storage with Wheels

Rolling carts are a fun way to store toys. They keep your child's room clean, and rolling it around can be a fun little activity for your child. You can also get toy boxes on wheels that'll just get your little one moving around and clean up their room.

Wall-Mounted Storage

If you're opting for wall-mounted shelves, they are great for freeing up floor space and displaying toys. Hanging baskets on the other hand, are great for storing plushies or small toys. Wall-mounted storage options are great if you have limited space.

Multi-Functional Storage

These are a great option if you want a particular look for your child's room or just want to have more seating options in their room. Storage ottomans and benches with storage offer a place to sit and store toys.

When choosing toy storage, consider:

• The child's age and developmental stage.

• The type and quantity of toys to be stored.

• The available space.

• Safety features.

• The overall aesthetic of the room.
