We do need to downsize on the toys. But when family keep buying its hard to control!
We want to have you rotation and not have a lot out at once because we find that they just jumble eerything. Sometimes they'll play lovely but then it's as if they just mix it all and then not really know what each thing is for (mainly about 3yo) so she'll end up atoring all puzzles in her dolls house, all her puzzles in the book box jumbled, all the colouring pencils in the barbie at etc.
We play and I explain what each thing does, etc
I know its imagination but what can I do (other than the toy sort and rotation)
And getting them to help tidy is a mission in itself even with making it 'fun'
And I feel myself go on at 3yo poor thin but sometimes it is a bit silly not just her age sometimes as she knows not to just throw it all out and leave it and not wen play with the stuff.
