It doesn't matter if you have 10 or 10,000,000 Lego parts, storage and organization are necessary. This community is dedicated to discussions about organizing parts, pictures and videos of part storage and organization, and links to suggested bins and containers.

Limited space and 4 kids (self.legostorage)

Just saw this group appear!! I have 4 young kids and my house is pretty small, and I need some help!

  • Should I keep the original boxes, at the moment I do but they are just empty and taking up space
  • I am trying to keep all the instructions in a folder.... But
  • either the sets (mostly either Harry potter (so expensive) or Lego friends (very cute) stay built or my youngest destroys them...

But then they all end up in the "Lego box" which is one of them yellow Lego container boxes with the 8 studs.

It feels very much like it's kinda, make the thing on the box once, maybe play with it a bit, then it breaks and the parts arent looked at again.

I guess what I'm asking is with limited space, what's the best way to make the Lego I already have, more accessible to the kids so I can take out the big floor plate and "just build" (cause buying new sets all the time is getting too expensive)

Thanks!!!

If you have the space, I highly reccomend a mat bag like this. They allow to spread the pieces out fully so you can see all of then at once, which is really nice for building.
