At a certain age, kids become obsessed with all things Lego

And while Legos are absolutely wonderful toys that encourage creativity and help kids with problem-solving, they’re also, well, a hot mess. The bricks get underfoot, and are particularly lethal in the middle of the night when you step on one. And you will. Repeatedly. For kids, meanwhile, it’s absolutely catastrophic when pieces go missing, thus making it impossible to finish a specific Lego set. To avoid both of the scenarios above, you need to invest in Lego storage. Lego organizers range from plastic bins to totes to Lego tables with storage built in. While none are going to wind up in Architectural Digest, they will save your sanity (and delicate feet) because bricks are expensive and there’s nothing more frustrating than getting this close to finishing a complex set only to be missing a key piece.
