If there’s one thing we’re always looking for as parents, it’s a better way to store LEGO bricks. While we still haven’t found the perfect storage solution, we did find plenty of options to help get you started. From rolling carts to a bag that sweeps everything up in one swoop, here are our top picks for how to keep those bricks together and out from under your feet.
LEGO Bags Organizer
When it comes to organizing all those LEGO bricks, why not turn to the creators themselves? LEGO Bags is ready to rock your world with a super cool storage system. The 4 Piece Organizer Tote features a playmat and three zip bins to keep everything (including those “in-process” projects) in place. Best of all, it all folds up into one hand tote!
You don't have to sacrifice style when it comes to storing LEGO. This sharp-looking five-drawer metal cabinet from the Container Store is offered in several bright colors (red, orange, green, aqua and more). Simply add in some of the drawer dividers, and you've got a place for every last brick.
Sometimes your kids will want to build with LEGO in their rooms, sometimes they'll want to build in the living room, kitchen or wherever else strikes their fancy. An arts and craft storage cart will also work for their bricks, especially if you find bins to organize the pieces. This one from Michael's is great because you can choose white or color bins!
What better place to store bricks than a minifig head? Not only are they stackable, but they’re easy to clean, and they make great room decor for a master builder.
We love this stylish toy storage basket that turns into a play mat. Simply pour the bricks out onto the play mat and use the handles to scoop them right back up when it’s time to clean up.
Storage ideas for travel are important too! This little container not only has a small drawer for important bricks, but it also has a handle and a building plate on top, which is ideal for car or plane travel.
If you want to try to keep LEGO sets together, these mesh bags are super helpful. You can store all the bricks in the set as well as the instructions, and they easily go into a bin or storage container.
