Storage Ideas are Maid for Spring Cleaning

The time for spring cleaning is here! For many families, each year brings a new heap of toys, gadgets, books, and puzzles. When it comes to organizing children’s items, storage containers need to be easy to use, yet strong enough to stand up to piles of heavy, oddly shaped items. Whether parents are looking to round up an ever-growing collection of stuffed animals, or need a central place for all those Legos and crayons, The Giggle Guide^® likes these neat solutions from 3 Sprouts, Resource International, Jonti-Craft and Little Zookeepers that are durable, kid-friendly, and fit beautifully into any home décor.

Getting Organized is as Easy as 1-2-3 Sprouts

3 Sprouts is an eco-friendly, modern collection of children’s products started by three friends with high-profile designer backgrounds. After designing products for brands like Kate Spade, Barneys and Holt Renfrew, the talented designers were inspired to create for the children’s market.

Organization products are adorned with simple, clean, modern animal figures that bring cheerful style to a child’s space. Committed to all things elegant, these products fit seamlessly into mom and dad’s existing décor with neutral canvas backdrops on each product.

Storage bins, a staple for organization projects, are constructed of durable, organic cotton canvas. The oversized bins are 17.5” high and 17” in diameter and are sturdy enough to hold everything from stuffed animals to book collections. The circular, self-standing bins also make perfect laundry baskets! For easy hideaway, the bins even collapse for compact storage when not in use.

Another organization must-have is the portable storage caddy. This versatile piece can be used to hold anything from diapering to art supplies. The clean organic canvas and ecospun felt make this an elegant alternative for on-the-go storage. The eco-caddies have the trademark animals on one side and a plain back with accent strip. Display the adorable beaver or mouse in the nursery or the simple, elegant side in the living room!

The wall organizer is ideal for keeping small items organized and within reach. The adorable design displays animal head, body, and feet on each of the three storage pockets.

Little Zookeepers Tames the Wild Plush Jungle!

Some kids like trucks, some like sports, and some are just crazy for stuffed animals! Those adorable plushies can make for addictive collectors and are irresistible to many little ones. However, organizing the overstuffed loved ones can be a challenge. Little Zookeepers offers The Zoo: an original and fun animal tamer! It’s a storage system specially designed for the stuffed animal lover.

The ball containers used in stores inspired this large cage-like system. Kids can easily put away and retrieve animals from their zoo cage while floors and beds are kept clean. The 60” tall cage has a wood frame with specially covered elastic bars. Bars can be safely and easily moved out of the way to retrieve any animal. Cleaning up is fun with the open top, just toss animals in like a game of basketball!

The tall design is used to clear up as much space as possible; the entire cage only takes up 2 feet of floor space but can hold up to 90 medium-sized plushes. The Zoo attaches to the wall for safety and can be painted to match any décor.
