need help with grandkids toys
Quote from VinefIN on May 22, 2020, 3:01 pmoh my goodness my daughter dropped off the little ones again this morning and i swear they brought half their toy collection with them. it's everywhere, under the sofa, in the kitchen, i found a tiny lego brick in my coffee cup. she said they'd be back by five, it's already three thirty and i'm just so tired from running after them. i went to target yesterday and bought a big bin but they just ended up taking the toys out again. i don't know what to do with all this stuff. do you all have any good ideas for toy storage that actually works with little kids?

Quote from freemountain79 on May 24, 2020, 3:53 amI hear you @VinefIN. It’s a constant battle. I try to designate a toy bin, but it never lasts long. Today I tripped over a stuffed animal on the stairs.

Quote from Goldenhour63 on May 31, 2020, 3:30 am@VinefIN Oh my gosh, a dinosaur in your shoe! That's wild. I’m still finding tiny cars from my grandson’s last visit, and I swear one of them is still in my purse.

Quote from calmwaters1982 on June 1, 2020, 8:06 pm@VinefIN A toy bin is a good idea, but it’s like they have a mission to spread them everywhere. I found a tiny princess wand stuck in the toaster yesterday.

Quote from heartbramble on June 6, 2020, 5:39 pm@VinefIN I feel you! LEGOs are the worst. I stepped on one last night in the dark and nearly yelped loud enough to wake the neighbors.
