We have a 15yr old son who still plays with Lego!
We think he should get outside more and have a life.
I mean playing with Lego at 15 is downright babyish!!!

Legos – Picking Up Toys Tip –

If they prefer dumping the Legos out to either play on the floor or to search for a specific piece, I recommend putting a blanket or sheet out on the floor. It makes clean up so fast and easy! Just pick up the four corners of the blanket and dump the Legos back into the container.

I totally cheated and gave my son a small room in the basement to store his 15 years worth of Lego bricks and structures. He uses rolling carts with drawers and stackable bins on wheels, the small drawers for screws and hardware for the tiny bits, and clear shoebox bins on shelves. A few folding banquet tables are in there to build on, too.

We have approx 3.5 tons of Lego Duplos for our kids, ages 6, 4, 3, and 6 mo (well, she hasn’t *quite* grown into them yet). They play with them on our Nilo Table, which has room underneath for 2 large Nilo toy boxes on casters, each divided into quadrants. They use one Nilo toy box for Lego Duplos and Brio wooden train components, and the other toy box for Everything Else.

http://www.nilotoys.com/

They’re very well-made & designed to allow kids to sit on the table to play (holds their weight safely).

We have more Legos & Brio than they can access easily at this point, so I look forward to browsing the comments for ideas. I’m thinking that the organizing drawers on wheels might work for their Lego & Brio people & special pieces, leaving the big bins for other components.

Whatever I do has to be easy enough for all of them to use. I refuse to implement organizing systems too complex for a 3 y.o. to use.

Oh and Nilo tables hold up to 4 large, removable Lego boards that will completely fill the table’s surface. One side is for Duplo and the other side is for traditional Legos. We LOVE our Nilo table. I wouldn’t know what to do without it. It keeps all their building projects off the floor. Its design is so superior to others I’ve seen, I just can’t say enough about it.

What a great blog you have! I love all the info below on lego storage (my son loves them) and all those neat chore charts. I have one for my teen daughter, but need one for my 6 yr old son. Thanks for all that research!

Have a great day.
