   Advice on How to Keep a Child's Room/ Toy Room Organized and Clean?
   
   Some days I feel like all I do is pick up toys. I have my child help too, but any one have inexpensive ideas on how to keep the mess from happening, especially when having play dates.  It can be impossible to do the "play with one toy and put it away" with a room full of toddlers in an apartment!

   keep those toys that your child doesn't play with often. Restrict to 3 types of toys in the playroom and instruct him to put back the toys into the appropriate boxes after play. Otherwise, give him a warning that you will "throw" away the toys. It works for me.

      Thanks for the answer! We live in a small apartment, and I don't have room for storage so it can create quite a mess. We still try to organize and encourage our friends to help clean up when they are done playing, too!

   Toys can quickly take over your house especially when you have more than one child. It can feel like a never ending battle when it comes time to pick up all of the toys that your child has played with through out the day. An excellent way to clean any mess up quickly is to have a good organizational method in place for the toys. This can free up much needed space in your home and also give you extra time in the day for you to enjoy! read more

      Thanks for answering my question with a hub. I appreciate the disclaimer about the storage containers too; I have heard of children getting trapped in larger toy boxes and containers.
