From Mission Organization:
 
Have an area for different activities eg:
 
Exercise area ( they had screens which could be removed to see the TV area while exercising-- great idea for exercise videos.
 
Games, crafts area (table that turns into a bed! - would love to have that but I think very expensive)
 
Home theatre area - they used slip covers to cover sofas - looked great
 
Big toy area ie. play garages, dollhouse- stored under this sort of counter all in a row (an area where these people did not know what to do)
 
Small toys were in stacking rolling drawer things that could be taken apart.  Everything labelled for the 7-year old boy who was just learning to read well and stored in a big closet.
 
Board games were stored in a cabinet under the TV (not too far from the table)
 
The panelling was painted a nice greyish colour (formerly ugly dark brown)
 
Toys were sorted first according to which kid they belonged to in piles (even the parent's stuff in a pile) before they decided on how much storage they needed.  Tons of toys were donated.
