I recently had a reader ask about the organization that we did with Molly’s toys. She was curious how things were going with the bins and picture labels, three months after I originally posted about it.
I really wanted to take an opportunity to write about it because I think that often, as bloggers, we get a great idea and post about it right away. But, then we often don’t post later to say, “Wow — this totally didn’t actually work for us” or “Things are still going great with this!”
I am thrilled to report that Molly (and everyone else in the family, as they were often culprits in not keeping things organized as well) has continued to enjoy this system and has been keeping her toys clean and organized. Of course, there are times that everything is sitting out. But, it’s easy to get it all cleaned up.
As a matter-of-fact, I realized how well the system was working when she was putting some toys in one of the tubs, and then saw a Care Bear in the Littlest Pet Shop tub. She laughed and said, “There’s a Care Bear in the Littlest Pet Shop box,” as though it was the funniest thing she had seen in a while. She then promptly removed it and put it in the correct box.
I had previously tried over and over to organize toys into tubs, but it always ended up disorganized later. The labels, however, seemed to make all the difference. And what a difference that is!
Thanks for the great question!
