5 DIY Tips to De-Clutter Your Play Room

A play room totally free of clutter is much like a unicorn: almost definitely mythical and if you ever witness one you are obligated to Instagram it. While shooting for perfection in your play room may be a pipe dream, these five projects will at least buy you some time between games of “52 Toy Pick-Up”.

Legos are inarguably one of the best toys to foster creativity, but step on one with barefeet and you’ll wish they never existed. Incentivize Lego clean-up by color coding a few storage bins. Not only will it make easier for your children to find the right brick while building, but sorting them at the end of play time becomes an educational game of its own.
