well the usual lorry load of new toys etc arrived yesterday which of course has just taken over and my house now looks like toys r us!!! what on earth do i do with it all now? I did some de cluttering last week but is it wrong to start "hiding" some in wardrobes etc and put the rest away in the storage places we have? or should i just leave it all out so they can see it DH says im mean if i put it all away but I am just trying to work out where it can all live!!!

Are there any old toys that could leave home instead? I don't see what's wrong with rotating toys - it helps keep them fresh.

They could have a new selection every week .

I think im going to have to be a little bit more ruthless with the older toys and putting some of the unpackaged stuff away for now will just make it a bit more fun when i get it down in a months time or so - like xmas all over again !
i think they are so over faced with it all that they arent playing with anything hardly !! my DD has spent most of the day with a £12 tamagotchi with all the more expensive stuff hardly looked at

I have hidden some things to get out at a later date/when at risk of going mad due to bouncy ds1 and have also hidden some to return to the shops - things given to ds1 that have loads of littel pieces/are very messy.
