week 26: toy tidying tips
Now that baby is starting to roll around and will soon crawl, we have set up a play area in our living room for her to be busy and active while we do our big people stuff (cook, eat, read books, talk, play piano). The key to letting colorful, sometimes awful plastic stuff into your social space is to have a rapid clean up routine. I’m a big fan of nice baskets, woven or fabric, which I scatter across the house to make sure that there is always a place to put toys away.
If you live in San Francisco, you can buy my favorite cloth baskets (left picture) at Lotus Bleu in Hayes Valley. The woven baskets come from West Africa: I bought mine in Oakland.
