This looks great! I also rotate the toys, like a previous poster. Monkey just got his Little People bin back after it was a fan stand all summer & they’re as interesting as new! But I think that picture labels would be a great idea, one I may have to use. Are you still having toys more or less find their way back into the right bins, 3 months later?

Looks great! I did that with some of our bins and it really helped B keep things organized on his own!

I did something very similar for my son’s room, except that I put the words on the front along with the picture. We have plastic dish tubs, and I ended up using clear packing tape to secure the photos to the tubs. It works beautifully! Here’s how I did it: http://superchikk.blogspot.com/2009/04/works-for-me-wednesday-toy-storage.html

That is a lot of toys for one little person. Have you tried putting some of them away and rotating them? That seemed to work for my bunch of 4.

I wish i were more organized! I want to have buns to keep my kids toys in. The amount of toys I have keeps doubling! I swear I rarely buy them new things… I don’t know where it all comes from!
