Your How-To For Organizing Legos

You would be surprised. After 15 years of organizing families and children, the number one question I still get asked is how to organize the endless Lego pieces that seem to make their way into every corner of a home. Now, as with everything you organize, it really depends on the individual.

So I ask the following. How many Legos do you have? Where do you want them stored? How often are they used? Do you want to sort and store them by color? size? type? Do you like to keep the creations you build or reuse the pieces? And the list goes on and on. Now my son was a Lego loving kid and over the years we changed our storage as he grew. We sorted by color using drawers in his wall unit and a large rolling cart from the Container Store. It worked for him and I was thrilled that I no longer found small pieces imbedded in the carpet.

But, it wasn’t always that way. You might have to go through two or three systems until you hit a system. In the meantime, to make your Lego storage journey easier to navigate, I am sharing a wonderful article I stumbled upon that is one of the most comprehensive round ups of Lego storage ideas: http://getsetorganize.com/26-ideas-for-lego-storage-containers/ Let me know how it worked out!
