A child's playroom should be a place where he or she can joyfully and safely spend time exploring his or her surroundings. The room should be decorated with bright, stimulating colors. But care should be taken not to overwhelm the child with an overly busy or cluttered room. A well structured, organized play area will allow room for imagination without being over stimulating. These cheerful wooden toy boxes and toy chests will help with organization while bringing vibrant colors into the playroom.
Wooden toy chests are designed with children in mind. Each toy box or bench has been fitted with slow closing safety hinges. Boxes are constructed with cut-outs under the lid's closing edge to prevent pinched fingers. Many of the toy chests come with casters, making them easy to roll, to rearrange, or to move as needed. All of the toy boxes, toy chests and toy storage benches are constructed from the highest quality wood making them solid and durable.
Toy box interiors are roomy and can be customized with removable dividers to separate toys and books. Toy box exteriors come in a great variety of creations. Many toy chests also function as a bench and toys storage solution and just perfect for waiting areas, daycares or preschool centers. There are styles made specifically for boys, and those that are made just for girls. Many are perfect for both, or for more than one child.
Made with girls in mind there are pastel castles, princess carriages, doll houses, and butterflies. Pink, lavender, or topped with a soft pillow there are many pretty wooden toy boxes to choose from. Picture your little girl dancing around in her fairy costume. As she flutters from her bed to her toy box, she imagines that she is freeing her fairy friends from the enchanted chest. She lifts them out one by one and gives them each a sweet fairy kiss. The child then tenderly tucks each freed creature into bed. By nap time, she has magically broken the spell. But the real magic happens when she cheerfully picks up all her toys and deposits them into her darling pink princess toy chest.
Fire trucks, fire stations, school buses, and circus tents filled with big cats are among the wide variety of choices for little boys. Perhaps you have a son who plays on a little league team. He thinks, breaths, and eats baseball. He is learning to pitch, hit, run bases and to be a good at sport. If only he would learn to put his equipment away instead of leaving it all over his room. A sporty looking wooden toy box with baseball favorite team logo and design would be an excellent motivational tool.
His little brother who looks up to him in every way will want a toy box of his own. He also loves to play baseball, but he dreams of being a train engineer. He will be able to take many exciting trips across the country on his locomotive toy chest. And he won't be without storage space!
With so many creative choices, there is sure to be the perfect wooden toy box or wooden toy chest for your child, one to spark his or her imagination, with its rich colors and specific theme. Adding a wooden toys storage box to your child's play area will be a valuable investment in the life of your child and in your playroom.
