5 Creative Ways to Organize Your Extra Large Building Blocks After the Holidays

The holidays are over, the tree is down, and the wrapping paper has finally been recycled. But now you’re left with a mountain of extra large building blocks scattered across your living room. Sound familiar? Don’t worry—we’ve got you covered with fun and practical tips for organizing your Biggo Blocks and turning post-holiday chaos into a tidy, creative play zone!

Ready? Let’s dive in and make cleanup as fun as the build-up. (See what we did there?)

1. Build a Storage Station

Why buy storage bins when you can build one? Use your extra large building blocks to create a custom storage solution for, well, more blocks!

Build a box with an open top for easy access, or add a sliding door feature for extra cool points.

Color-code your blocks for storage. For example, red blocks on one side, blue on the other—it’ll make future playtime even easier. The kids will love helping out, and it’s a sneaky way to get them invested in keeping things tidy.

2. Sort by Size, Color, or Set

Turn cleanup into a sorting game! Sorting blocks by size, color, or set isn’t just satisfying—it’s also a great learning activity.

Challenge Your Kids who can sort their blocks the fastest. Bonus points for neat stacks! Organizing by size helps kids develop spatial awareness, while color sorting is perfect for younger builders just learning to identify patterns.

Use clear bins or zip-up storage bags to keep different categories separate and visible.

3. Use Stackable Storage Bins for Easy Access

If you’re all about efficiency, invest in stackable storage bins for your Jumbo building blocks. Choose bins with open tops so kids can easily grab what they need and (more importantly) put them back. Label each bin with pictures or words to make cleanup even simpler.

et your kids decorate the bins with stickers or drawings of what’s inside. It’s personalization and organization!

4. Dedicate a Play Zone

Instead of letting Biggo Blocks roam free throughout the house, create a dedicated play area where the blocks can live (and play).

  • Lay down a colorful play mat to mark the area.
  • Add shelving or cubbies nearby for easy storage.
  • Hang a “Block Zone” sign made out of—you guessed it—blocks!

A designated play zone keeps things tidy while giving kids their own creative space.

5. Rotate Blocks to Keep Things Fresh

Kids bored with their blocks? It’s not them—it’s the over-familiarity. Keep things exciting by rotating sets of blocks.

Store a portion of your collection out of sight and rotate them every few weeks. Each “new” set feels like a surprise all over again! Use this rotation strategy for themed blocks, like holiday colors or seasonal builds.

Why Organizing Your Extra Large Building Blocks Matters

  1. Makes Playtime Easier: When everything’s in its place, kids can find what they need faster.
  2. Encourages Responsibility: Teaching kids to clean up after themselves helps them develop good habits.
  3. Keeps Your Space Tidy: Say goodbye to stepping on stray blocks (your feet will thank you).

Organizing your extra large building blocks doesn’t have to be boring. With a little creativity and teamwork, it can be just as fun as playtime itself! So, whether you’re building a custom storage solution, sorting by color, or turning cleanup into a family game, you’ll be ready to dive back into the fun in no time.
