Play Smarter, Not Harder: Real Playroom Results from a Professional Playroom Organizer
Is your playroom busting at the seams, but you still can’t seem to keep the chaos at bay?
That challenge is more common that you might think, and it’s exactly the kind of transformation I love to create for busy families.
The Challenge: Two Spaces, Zero Clarity
For this recent project, the family’s biggest pain point was having two separate play spaces but no clear understanding of what belonged where. Toys seemed to migrate from room to room, and no one could ever find what they needed—least of all, the kids.
The Process: Every Toy in Its Place
After listening to the family’s needs, I set out to create a system that truly worked for their routine.
Downstairs Setup
Independent toys and ride-on trucks found a new home downstairs, giving the boys plenty of room to play freely.
Upstairs Setup
Upstairs, I placed all the cars, trains, puzzles, and toys with lots of small pieces—keeping complex play together and easier to supervise.
Decluttering was a big part of the process. We focused on open-ended, independent toys, making it easier for the kids to choose what inspires them, and for the parents to keep things tidy.
The Results: A Functional Family-Friendly Space
The parents were thrilled with the transformation, especially the new downstairs closet. Suddenly, everything had a place, and the boys could actually play without tripping over clutter or searching for missing pieces.
The playroom felt lighter, more inviting, and—most importantly—functional.
Easy Tips for Maintaining an Organized Playroom
Assign zones for different types of play (creative, movement, building, etc.)
Keep similar toys together and within reach of little hands.
Regularly edit out unused or broken toys to keep clutter form creeping back in.

FAQs
How do I know what toys to keep or donate?
Keep what your kids truly love and use. Let go of duplicates, broken items, and toys they’ve outgrown. And any toy you hate!
How often should I reorganize the playroom?
A quick reset every few months keeps things running smoothly, but a deep declutter once or twice a year is ideal.
Can you help with storage solutions in small spaces?
Absolutely! Creative storage is one of my favorite ways to make the most of any space.
