Hello! Welcome Back to The Fife Life! We’ve been organizing and redecorating our home this week—I’m in full out mom nesting mode right now with baby coming in about a month!
My toddler and the new baby will be sharing a room, which makes less room for my toddler’s toys in the bedroom.
I decided to convert our living room to the designated toy room and loved how it turned out! We are currently living in a rental home, so I love finding easy and removable organization hacks and tips that you can easily take down and move later if needed.

In this video, I’ll show how I organized my toddler’s toys in our living room and will have to reveal the whole living room space once it is all finished to show some organization ideas on how I set up this new toy room as still a functional living room.
up this new toy room as still a functional living room.
My toddler toys were always a HUGE mess. I tried keeping things together in this toy organizer that had 12 plastic bins, but they were too big to really keep anything sorted or organized and my toddler would just constantly end up dumping each one of the bins out into a scattered mess.

And if you have any other closet storage hacks, so I can fit both my toddler and baby’s clothes in the closet, let me know in the comments below!
So the cubical organizer! I searched and searched for a good cubicle organizer and finally found one that I liked from Amazon
As always all of the products I mention in this video will be in the description box if you want to go check them out.
I love how this organizer gives you the perfect space to fit in a standard sized tote. (I had to do lots of measuring research when I was looking at different options).
Also, it was really easy to stack two cubical organizers on top of each other to save more floor space, but not being too massive.
I loved the rich gray color of the foldable storage baskets- and again they fit perfectly in the organizer! I bought 3 different plastic supply cases- large, medium, and small.
The large rectangle plastic containers stacked and fit perfect on the shelves and the small and medium size fit really well inside the storage bins.
Alright so turn up the music and you can organize your own kids’ toys with me. I started organizing with my toddler trying to help me, so it took a few days.
I like how I put toys my toddler can easily get into herself near the bottom and then the out of reach levels are all games, crafts, and toys that I would need to help her with so it’s good they are out of her reach.
Out of her reach.
I was also excited to finally get out and use my new label maker. It was really easy to use and I love how labeling everything makes it so easy to know where each basket goes,
so whoever is cleaning the room (like if friends come over for playdates and they want to help clean up) we can put everything back how it was found.
