I gave my 6.5 year old's room a mini makeover today. The 9-cube shelves that held his toddler toys when he was younger weren't really working for us now, and it was time to move the play kitchen into storage.

I moved everything out of his room, purged a bunch of stuff, reorganized, and then rearranged to make the room function better. The bookshelves and one of the Trofast units were new additions.

Trofast units from Ikea for his Lego collection. They're all sorted by color. I'm glad to have them out of my family room! I'm making a corkboard to hang on that wall . I have the frame finished but need to glue down the cork.

The map has pins for all the places we've visited.

Not a huge room, but I'm hoping it'll work for him!

Yes!

We've had one Trofast unit of Legos in the family room for about a year now, and he's done a fairly good job of keeping them sorted. He's pretty serious about his Legos and wants to be able to find stuff when he builds, but he also likes to create his own stuff. It seemed like the best storage option for him.

That is awesome. I could see DD doing this to a point. She's very particular about her groceries

But that is a much more impressive collection than hers!

That's great to hear. We are just getting into Legos here with DS1 turning 4, and I cam already see the need for some organization soon.

We're going to pick up two Trofast units the next time we are near IKEA for all our duplo sets. It definitely seems like the easiest way to organize!
