fuzzpig, anyone - advice on storage solutions for kids craft bits

[everydayaschoolday]

I have some trofast from my mum, but the 'buckets' are too big and all the little bits like marg tubs of pom poms, wiggly eyes etc, and pencil cases of colouring pencils/pens etc all get lost in there. So I'd like to lose the trofast, but replace it with what? Any suggestions really appreciated.

Why not use zip bags rather than tubs? You can see what is there but the items are easily squashed into the smallest space.

I think zip bags might be a better idea than my marg tubs - thanks. What do you use to keep all the bits, inc paper, altogether? Plastic drawers?
