I need your help. Mike and I have decided to take our entire stimulus check from the government and make the girls a play room that will really be functional and good for them now as well as in the future. We'll add money if we run out...we just want it to be what will work and aren't totally focused on the cost.
So, here's what we need. Nothing permanent on the walls (we are military and have to move with this stuff), but stuff we can anchor to the walls (so it doesn't fall and crush anyone). We need storage for toys, books, dolls, coloring books, games, puzzles etc. We'd like it to have 2 small desk areas where they can color and later on do homework, draw, write letters etc. We aren't thrilled about paying Pottery Barn Kids prices. But we don't want something cheap that will fall apart either.
Any ideas? Do you have some great system that works awesome? I just want stuff to have a place. Right now they have a small bookcase, a kitchen, a 3 drawer dresser w/TV/DVD on top of it and big clear bins to dump their toys in. It's just not working. The first thing they do in the a.m. is dump out the bins all over the floor. Getting the toys back in is like pulling teeth. Even if I sing the dumb Happy Working Song from Enchanted and do the high princess voice and everything. Help, I'm being overtaken by toys.

so two comments in one day! you are a very lucky girl! i say go to ikea and check there first. or maybe the container store, which is in the bay area. both reasonably priced and storage solution minded. good luck! btw, we are getting a pool (above ground) with ours, so you and the girls will have to come over this summer and hang.
