Storage and Organising Tips for Nurseries and Playrooms

Brilliant Storage and Organising Tips for Playrooms and Nurseries (That Won’t Break Your Brain or Your Back)

Let’s talk about the chaos that is a baby’s playroom. One minute it’s a serene haven of wooden toys and pastel aesthetics, the next—it’s a LEGO minefield with a side of banana smeared on a plush llama.

Whether you're pregnant and nesting like a pro or knee-deep in toddler toys already, getting your nursery or playroom organised is a total game changer. And the secret sauce? Clever storage + comfy floor space = happy baby, happy you.

And yes, we absolutely recommend starting with a Munchkin and Bear Memory Foam Play Mat—not just because it’s stunning and squishy, but because it gives you a clean, safe foundation while you channel your inner Marie Kondo.

1. Use Baskets Like a Boss

Pop open storage baskets into cube shelves or around the room. Label them if you like (bonus points for cute chalkboard tags). They’re perfect for quick toy sweeps when guests pop in unexpectedly.

2. Rotate Toys (and Keep Your Sanity)

Instead of keeping all the toys out at once, store half in a box and swap them every couple of weeks. It keeps things fresh and prevents overwhelm—for your baby and your living room.

3. Go Vertical

Wall-mounted bookshelves, hanging baskets, or even pegboards with pouches are fab for storing books, stuffed animals and supplies without eating up precious floor space.

4. Furniture That Works Hard

Choose pieces with hidden storage—ottomans, benches, or change tables with drawers. Functional and fabulous.

5. The “Throw It In a Bin” Strategy

Sometimes, you just need a giant toy box. One that closes. And hides the chaos until tomorrow. No shame. Just toss it all in, pop on a lid, and pour yourself a tea.
