Toy organization

How you organize your DC's toys? I am looking for a book shelf type of thing with clear bins so DS can see the toys inside without having to pull everything out. Right now, I have 2 big baskets but he can't see what is at the bottom and just plays with the same 5 toys all the time.
I would even put it together myself but most book shelves are not very deep so the bins would have to be pretty small. Obviously, it can't be too high either.

I've found,with a 4.5yo and a 2.5 yo, the only way to "organize" their toys is the throw them all in their rooms, and close the door... Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Ours is the living room so my house always looks like a disaster. We moved his toybox into the living room and that made a LITTLE difference but not much. If you find something great PLEASE let me know!

I found this thing at Target that I love. It's like 3 shelves with colored bins that stay on the shelves but are a little tilted so Sophie can pull out toys. It was on sale too!

Re: Toy organization

We have a toy box in DD's room, and another toybox in our room. There are a few large toys that don't fit in a toybox, that stay in the living room against the wall. I try to rotate the toys between upstairs and downstairs so she plays with them in different places.

Everynight before bed, we do clean-up, and DD helps put everything away. During the day...they are usually strewn across the living room and hallway Chat Icon
