Need help with all these toys!

[fishtank12345]

Hello

Autism related so I do not want answers that say things like... she's a child and you are the adult just put the foot down bla bla as that does not work for our kiddo (wish it did) any other autism mums will understand why I am stating that fact first.

Dd is almost 5 and audhd. I have bought her lots of toys over the years, she loves them, she also loves them lying round all over the place and it seems to give her comfort, me trying to tidy them is a waste of time to be honest.

I need ideas please on ways to toy rotate when we do not have a lot of storage space in cupboards and if I put them up the loft she asks where they are and is persistent in getting them back down.

The other issue I have is anytime we leave the house, she asks for new stuff, its really hard as when we need to sometimes say no, its a big deal and a meltdown, so any tips on dealing with this (life is so stressful anyway so need to not make being out of the house a worse experience)

also apologies I did not mean that 1st paragraph to sound cheeky lol.

Clear plastic boxes are good - she can still see her things, but they're not scattered around.

Can you start saving for an experience she'd love to do? Make it very visible. So when she asks for stuff you can give her the option of putting the money towards that target instead.

Can you do a visual timetable where one day a picture of a toy and different pictures for other days e.g a picture of a playground if you go to a playground?
so on a toy day she will get a toy.

is she allowed to take something with her e.g a soft toy and then she has something already when asking ?

Good ideas here, thank you very helpful!

Thanks you that is a good idea.
