The Toyroom

Acouple days ago I posted saying that I started to clean the toyroom. Friday I got the urge to really deep clean it and organize it.


The toyroom is suposse to be the master bedroom in the house. We didnt want to use it as a bedroom since its the only bedroom on the main floor. We wanted our bedroom near the boys bedroom. The master bedroom was perfect for the toyroom. its right off the dining room and has an ensuite bathroom. The boys have enough toys to fill a toystore. A lot of the toys are big and take up lots of room. The were all around of the edges of the room and didnt leave much room in the middle to play. The room has a big closet but was always very cluttered. We cleaned it all out. Put the boxes of baby clothes elsewhere till I give them to my sister-in-law.

We bought shelves for the closet. Place the large toys and containors of blocks and legos on the shelf. Clean out the big white bin from the right side of closet. Put all the baby toys in a bag for my sister-in-law and put small random toys that the boys dont play with in a containor to put away on the top shelf. That way the boys cant just dump those toys on the floor. The white bin went outside to use for outdoor toys.

We have been wanting to buy a new sectional couch for a while but didnt have the room to move the fouton anywhere. We finally had room for the fouton in the toyroom. Saturday we went and bougt a new sectional. Found an awesome deal and its going to be delivered Thursday. Yesterday we moved the Fouton in the toyroom and completed cleaning up the toys. We also moved the book shelf into th I think it looks awesome. I am loving it and think it'll stay a lot cleaner this way. I am hoping to find a good book and do some reading while the boys play now. That way I can keep an eye on them and try to teach them the rule of play with one toy and when you are done, put it away.

Yay for being able to cross another thing off my anti-clutter list. What did you accomplish over the weekend?

Nice work!

We are truly working on the same rule - play with one toy and then put it away when you are done. Our newly four year old has started saying "but mom, cleaning is just not fun!"
