Apartment moms, where do your kids play? Ours love to play in the family room but I'm thinking of making a rule that they can only play in their rooms bc I feel like all I do is bring toys back to their room at the end of the day. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

My kids play all over, just not in my room and I tidy all day long. It's second nature, I just sweep things away as I pass through. I hate toy mess too [ Reply | More

I feel like the toy mess is out of control. It seems dcs favorite game these days is to drag every stuffed animal out of their room and line them up on the couch. [ Reply | More

I agree with the others- either lighten up & be happy that they are having fun or teach the kids to clean up when they are done. [ Reply | More

the problem is not where they are playing, but that you haven't taught them to clean up when they are done playing. [ Reply | More

Mine plays all over our whooping 700 sq. feet, I'm constantly organizing for more space, but I do make him help clean up before we do anything. [ Reply | More

I have one dd and she plays everywhere but the toys get stored in her room. I rotate the toys/limit how many we have and go out A LOT. Before bed we clean up. I would let them play all over but maybe make the rule about how many toys can be in the living room all at once or a two-time per day clean up. My dd cleans as it is a way to procrastinate going to sleep. [ Reply | More
