Check out this great collection of toy bin labels and get your playroom sorted!
I am a big fan of organizing kids toys into individual baskets or bins of like items rather than putting everything in one big toy box. I believe the process of sorting and returning belongings to their correct basket at pack away time helps children learn about being organised.
Labelling the bins is essential to helping children learn to maintain the system of organisation. When labelling toy bins it helps to have both an image with an accompanying word so that both pre-readers and early readers can learn to be more independent in looking after their belongings.
This set of 28 toy labels does just that. It is available to you as a free printable, with download and printing instructions included below. The set includes a few different variable for similar items, so you can choose which labels suit your system of organisation best. Once printed and laminated (or covered with clear plastic book covering), use clear tape to adhere to plastic bins or tubs or punch a hole in each corner and add string or twine to tie the label to the basket.
