When you said “Joseph is killing my vibe” hahaha I can relate to that so much.

[@karlaarguello3482]

I actually love this idea ! Putting them into bins weekly actually sounds a lot easier than setting up the toy rotations every week. I’m gonna try this

[@jules9618]

[@morgand7869]

Dream husband!!! I couldn’t pay my husband to organize ANY THING let alone pick his clothes off the floor or contribute to chores without me begging 😂

[@monica_zulkerine468]

I have found that putting out toys that focus on a specific skill and just one on each cubicle works great! The kids focus more on the toy and they know exactly where to put it away :) you know when you open the fridge and don’t know what to eat and the fridge is full? LOL that’s how kids feel with too many toys ☺️

[@MariaandMontessori]

Yes exactly! Limited choice with intention really helps them start out concentrated and focused, and not get as overwhelmed.

[@keyeligarcia2074]

Dear Kayla, I’m so glad you were able to come up with this idea of toy rotation. I’m a preschool teacher and love your blogs so much. Something I put on practice in the classroom and in my ow house with my toddler is to have less toys and make sure the ones I have have a learning purpose. With my 2.5 I realized that the less toys he has available for him, the more time he spends playing with them. It also helps them come up with other ideas on how to play with those toys. For example, use them in other ways. I think your kids will love this less amount of toys and of course you too! 💕

[@jules9618]

Here is another great toy videos to watch! She actually has an entire toy series. Helped me so much! kzbin.info/www/bejne/oWjOfamqgNubfaM

[@shellyj6855]

Thumbs up to Joe for helping you with sorting all those toys! My husband would never 😂 too many small bits and pieces, he would end up tossing it all lol 😂

[@mishaalzk6033]

Lmao same even now mine doesn’t put toys back in designated bins he’s like just put it all in large bin it doesn’t matter😒🙄😂🤪

[@thayerwilliams905]

This is how we set up our toy rotations a year ago. It's worked GREAT for us. We also do 4 divisions, and a little of every category in each division. And it makes having him clean up his own toys at the end of the day much more manageable, and every Monday it's a new rotation and he gets so excited about it every time. Rotation also allows me to wipe everything down and track down any misplaced pieces every week, so the toys stay in good condition and we aren't missing half the pieces for 6 months. It's also incredibly cool to see how differently he plays with his toys after a month without it, because the way he thinks and approaches things can change so much in that amount of time, and I would completely miss that if he had access to them all all of the time. A suggestion for you is every 3 or 4 months pull them all out and mix up which toys get grouped together so it stays extra exciting for them. They get toys together they haven't had together, and it makes it feel even more new. Right now he has 1 rotation where everything is themed for farm stuff. It wasn't intentional to get a lot of farm themed toys over the last 2 years - it just happened. About 2 months ago I was mixing the rotations up, realized how many farm things we had, and put all of then into the same rotation. He's gone through that group twice now, and it's currently his favorite one. The others don't have specific themes because there's not enough of another theme to fill out a rotation, but it's been really cool to observe the differences between how he plays with the non themed rotation verses the themed one. We even rotate the books because we have so many (big book family) and the farm rotation even has farm themed books. And we also have the toys that stay out all the time, and a couple special toys. Those end up being for waiting rooms for dr appointments and stuff for us. It looks like your doing a great job! Just keep tweaking the system when you see a need to to keep it working for your family!

[@chealsearivera9638]

I also love how serious you guys look at figuring out what toys to pick ! Real parent struggles. Serious discussions about toys lmao

[@DannaRose11]

Wow! I thought my daughter had a lot of toys 😂 i have nowhere near this amount but I only have 1 child. I love all of the toys you have for the kiddos and often get great ideas for what to get my daughter.

[@simplymebykas]

Sounds like a great idea having a box with everything for the week! Do keep us updated with how it goes as I am in need of a new system for our toys too.

[@jules9618]

[@rachellucky1822]

I am so glad to have found this video!! I felt like I was the only mom drowning in toys. 🫣 all my friends seemed to have started toy rotations at the beginning and I didn't and I'm suffering now!

[@ashleyryan6916]

This is perfect. I always heard about toy rotation but as a first time mom I wasn’t sure how to go about it. Loved this video!

[@jamesyourhot]

Good job 😅 I got overwhelmed just by looking at the before situation, but it turned out so great

[@ashlee3072]

I was just about to overhaul my toy system and declutter. Perfect timing!

[@jules9618]

Here is another great y video, she has a whole series! kzbin.info/www/bejne/oWjOfamqgNubfaM

[@MariaandMontessori]

If a strict weekly rotation doesn't work, you can also try the approach of removing toys as you notice them not reaching for something anymore, and replacing it with a different item from the stash. If Riley is into her Peppa Pigs for weeks at a time, totally fine to just leave them out and only switch out the ones she stops reaching for. Many ways to try toy rotation!

[@chnginglanes]

This is what I do!!

[@katielee3320]

what Im getting from this video is two loving parents working together so sweet haha

[@officiallyannalee6998]

Everyone has there own ways of decuttering and organizing as well. I just throw away my kids toys or donate them because the mess is overwhelming. So I just leave one or two items for my kiddos and a few in their bedrooms and thats it. But, all powers to you for changing toys, organizing and etc. It's still a lot of toys to me but your kids are so lucky to have you as their mommy. 😁 Love watching your videos .

[@moiradesrosiers8008]

I've been using this system for six months and it has worked soooo well for us!!

[@ola_younes]

I can't stop laughing when you two were dressing up the dolls..and the dinos test...Cheers hahaha

[@caffeinatedbard]

I feel like Joe enjoyed playing with toys. I feel like adults don't do it often enough lol this video is like you read my mind, i just organized my son's toys too haha 😂

[@AR-k39]

I do a toy rotation and use the same bins you have. I’m on the minimal side of toys but we definitely have more than a true minimalist, I also did go a little crazy for my daughters third birthday. I have the same cubed shelves in the kids room and one downstairs. Whatever doesn’t fit in there goes in the closet. I try to rotate the toys every couple weeks and take toys away they don’t play with, then when they’re brought out again they get played with a lot. You should at least keep all the nice wood toys if you think you might have a third, otherwise they might sell for good money, especially since you’re a KZbin star, you could put them up for sale! I keep our lovevry blocks out all the time

[@vanessaulmer8741]

This is genius! I’m so doing this. My kids have to many toys and never can find anything because they have to dig in toy boxes. Thanks!!

[@ashb2404]

I found including my kiddos in the donation process helpful... Some things I wouldn't even present to them, but things I was unsure of I'd include them in and I've been surprised sometimes, the things I thought they'd want or be attached to they couldn't care less and were more than willing to pass on... And they learn to be generous.. not to say it never fails but it's worth a shot now and then.

[@jennacarloni]

That’s such a good idea. This is a great system, very doable! I get the best organizing ideas from you❤️❤️

[@estephanina]

I can watch Joe line up dinosaurs for 30 minutes straight! 😄😆 My OCD appreciated that he both did quality control and sneaked in a little play time of his own! That'd be my logic... how can Jackson have a dinosaur army if they don't stand up straight?! 😊

[@rebeccastewart3360]

Your living room looks amazing!! 🤩 You are making me want to declutter now! Lol 🤣

[@mrs.sanchez4413]

Love this! Just did a toy rotation myself this week, oh how much work it is but so worth it😌

[@elhendrix3878]

Ruggable has Star Wars themed rugs for Jacson’s room!

[@chealsearivera9638]

I always deal with this ! My 1 1/2 year old knows the closet we keep all the toys for rotation and begs to get something else out !

[@norakalla5310]

Ok you just inspired me to set up a toy rotation for my kids toys!! That’s my next project 🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@lindseywhite3342]

Love the idea! I still think its too many toys out at one time.a little overwhelming for kids

[@gabrielacluciuniuc3451]

It's overwhelming even for me. I didn't know kids need so much stuff! I have a 13 month old girl and I realised I'm buying too many toys.

[@sherry_frm_cayman7803]

I’ve been trying to get the courage to do this, you make it look really easy. Goals for the next few weeks 💃🏽

[@NicoleLottLife]

Before having my second child I had no idea toy rotation even existed- I was so in the dark about everything with my first child! Lmao. But it’s brilliant and works great now that she’s old enough to care. My daughter just has a small cute play corner in our living room with just maybe 10 different toys of various kinds and that’s all she’s ever going to have at one time because I’m not trying to clean up a sh*t ton of toys off the floor everyday. No thanks lol

[@Jessica-ch1fo]

I loved these types of videos cuz I’m always trying to find new ways to organize and rotate toys♥️ p.s found it funny when joe sat and supervised for a while😭

[@ericarosenthal6275]

Okay when you are in the basement, the freestanding baby swing, I have been so back and forth on getting it. Is it durable? Do you recommend?

[@mishaalzk6033]

I am sorry but I died at 11:13 he just came and grabbed it like he is done with you😂😂😂

[@Jaxson12382]

I remeber that stage .. all the toys . Lol . My oldest are almost 8 and 6 they dont really play with toys anymore. Thank the heavens . And my 2 youngest i have a bin each and if it doesnt fit in the bin or if the bin is full and we wanna buy something else then we have to donate something . Except like my 2 yr olds bouncy horse or my daughters walker . But other than that if it fits it sits in the bin . If not bye bye 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@aprilsummers9930]

I need to do this with my son’s toys. They are a mess! Thanks for the motivation!

[@lilianamartinez4958]

This is a great idea. I’ve been following your advice from when Riley was little but my 15 month old still doesn’t really talk. Any advice?

[@jennyhendrickson8066]

HI LOVE IT

[@sunarabegum7094]

Where did you get your 4 storage bins from and what size are they?

[@briannairizarry1054]

Living in Florida, I'm definitely jealous of the basement lol. I use the pack n play to store toys 😂 it's chaos. You have such a good system!

[@therevisionprojectlife.org9161]

Love how you set this up... my daughter just dumps all of her toys and I’m a stuck picking them all up. It drives me bananas. I have to try something like this

Do you have a toy library in your area? I pay a yearly membership (115 Australian dollars from memory) and can borrow toys (indoor and outdoor stuff) every week if I want. It’s good because I’m not acquiring too much.

[@astraviil3043]

When Your kids are very good behaviour all the time and always taking good care of their things, keeping their rooms very clean, loving their favorite things and want to make nice childhood collections of their things: books, clothes, toys, video games, clothes, DVDs and etc, then donataing is very wrong thing to do. If You have few space then storage boxes and shelves will help You out and Your kids will be very happy and thankful then, if they can keep their favourite things. Childhood things are very valuable and it is very sad, if they won’t see them anymore in their life. Every child should have the right to keep their things, if they can take good care of them all the time!!!

[@melissac5321]

What advice or insight can y'all give me so I can avoid too many things or be proactive about organizing before she does start accumulating a bunch of toys??? My girl is 9 months old and only has a small basket of toys right now. I know I'm gonna have a toy buying problem in the future 😆

You need to let go if some toys, thats way too many toys for two kids! There are kids out there they will appreciate your donation. :)

[@annettelaterra3908]

Love it but wish you had credited milena on this

[@Alyssas15165]

Why??? Milena isn’t the only mom who rotates her kids toys.

[@4usister]

Maybe also think about when and how you would switch out and fill up the bins again
