What's the best way to store inset puzzles?

Does anyone know a good way of storing inset puzzles? (I think that's the correct name; I mean the wooden puzzles for toddlers where you fit shaped pieces into a board.)

We have lots of them and they keep falling all over the place, getting mixed up and losing their pieces. I considered keeping them in ziploc bags, but don't think that's safe because the dds might end up putting the bags over their heads.

Can anyone help?

it's like a game: see if you can find ALL the pieces to one puzzle. i generally get all but one. WHere is that boat?

punch holes in the bottom of the ziplock bags for safety? I have the same trouble actually, especially since the bambino can undo them but not put them back again!

What about a drawer unit like this?
or
Zip locks A4, they might not all fit agree punch holes in them}
Or thses kind of wallets, get them really cheap in the likes of Poundstrechers, poundland or even The Stationery Store

Thanks everyone. I hadn't thought of punching holes in ziploc bags/folders. Skribble's drawer unit looks great too, but a bit too expensive for me.
