Organizing Tiny Toys

Quick tip for kids toys. Kids accumulate a lot of toys and those toys come with many accessories. From tiny microscopic pieces to odd shaped extras making organizing a challenge! If the tiny pieces do not get much attention or the only attention they get is from your vacuum cleaner separate them from the toy bin. Store the pieces in a plastic bag or bin and add a label with the name and description. If the toys are used without the little extra pieces you might be able to get rid of them for good. But if they are a major part of the activity save for a later date.

Organize Your Entertainment center

Next to the kitchen the Media room is one of the most used rooms in the home. And the entertainment center one of the most used pieces of furniture. One of the first things I recommend to organize and save space is to go through all the CD’s, DVD’s and Games. Then get rid of the cases because they take up so much room! After getting rid of the cases organize them and put them into the CD wallets.
Getting rid of the liner notes is an option if you will never read and have no use. This information its easily accessible online. But there are wallets that hold them as well.

Organize CD’s, DVD’s and Games into separate wallets.
Music Cd’s can be organized by Genre, box sets, soundtracks and artist. You name it!
I recommend thin books because they are easy to manage. They are lightweight and don't get too heavy. You don't need to store 200 CD’s in one book. You can barley lift it.

DVD’s can be organized by Classics, TV Series, Family, Comedy, Horror, Romance, Action and Science fiction.
After organizing the music, movies and games. Make a master list of each title then label the books and pages.

Organizing The Puzzles Pieces

Trying to keep track of all your kids puzzle pieces? Now that is a challenge! Heres a quick tip. As soon as you open up a new puzzle, flip over the pieces and draw shape with a marker or use a stamp to mark the back of all of pieces. You could even write "50" for the total amount of pieces. This will help you when trying to figure out what pieces go to a particular puzzle and the total. You dont want to have to get rid of a puzzles because of so many mystery pieces or worse completing the puzzle but having the final piece missing.
