Tidy up your tot's toys with these genius space-saving solutions.

If you’ve been binge-watching Tidying Up With Marie Kondo and feel a burning need to declutter and organize your home from top to bottom, I have a suggestion: Start with your kid’s toys. As a mom to a 3-year-old, I can attest: Being a parent means owning piles and piles and piles of toys. The only way to prevent yourself from cleaning them constantly—or just living amongst the junk—is to create a smart storage system. Thankfully, there are plenty of mom bloggers out there who’ve come up with genius ways to store their kids' toys and keep clutter to a minimum. Here are some of our favorite toy storage hacks on the Internet:
