That can be a challenge. I usually go with whatever my first instinct is (if I think of scissors, do I think of art first?) Then I put the item with that stuff...figuring it's the first place I'll look next time. You can also put lists on the fronts of the drawers labeling everything that's inside. Kareema, I like the idea of using them to organize toys, too. Thanks for stopping by! Hi, Katrina! That can be a challenge.

Kareema, I like the idea of using them to organize toys, too. Thanks for stopping by!

My biggest challenge is knowing where to put things when they fall under a couple of categories (e.g., cutting w/scissors - is that Art or Practical Life?). Thanks for these great pics and ideas.

I'm just disappointed how expensive they have become these days. We have various sizes and the little ones are great for tiny toys, if your children are into miniatures.

They are separated by reinforcers, specific kits labeled for individual goals, and speech materials. We use these bins in my special ed. classroom.
