[quote=Anonymous]Designate a few shelves, baskets/areas for toys. Once the toy collection has outgrown those spots, it's time to pair down. I usually pull toys that haven't been played with a put in a box out of sight. If no one asks for the toy within a few weeks, I donate it or give it away. If it's a junk toy (like from a happy meal) it goes right into the trash. The issue with your DH is harder. But ask him to save the toys for celebration times, like a birthday or Christmas (if you celebrate). So when he thinks of a good gift, find it on Amazon and add it to a private wish list. Then when it's time to buy birthday gifts, you already have a bunch of ideas. You could also try "one in, one out" with your husband. So if he's buying another toy car, ok, but which toy car are they going to get rid of?[/quote]
