Organising LEGO into drawers can make playtime and tidying up easier for the whole family.

Before: mixed-up bricks, missing pieces and a floor nobody wants to cross barefoot.

During: sort together, choosing simple categories that make sense to your children. Drawers with clear labels or pictures help everyone know where each piece belongs.

After: children can find what they need, build independently and take part in putting things away. Parents spend less time searching and reminding, while shared spaces are easier to enjoy.

The best system is one the whole family can use and keep up with, long after the organising is finished.
