Winning the Tidying Battle with Child-Friendly Storage

Michelle Pritchard

Family life can be very hectic at times (/all the time!) and sometimes your days can feel like an endless round of cleaning and tidying up. As soon as you’ve put away the Lego, the Playmobil has been tipped out. You think you’ve finally found the last cuddly toy from the teddy bear’s picnic yesterday, only to discover that the bears have been playing hide and seek and are now scattered around the house. And without Mary Poppins can-do attitude and sunny disposition, it feels like it never ends.

 

Now, you may not be able to win the war, but you can make a valiant effort to stay on top of the tidying battle. The best way to do this is to fill your home with storage at every turn, so everything can be tidied away in a flash.

 

I have been having a look through Pintrest today to see what kinds of interesting, child-friendly storage ideas I could find and these were my favourites.
