She also puts EVERYTHING that is out, in the house, into my son's toy boxes, but not necessarily in the same one or the same place or in any logical way. Things that have ended up in my kids' toyboxes or cubbies (and we have a lot of these cubbies): swim goggles, mittens, shoes (mine), our dog's leash, candles, pictures, mail, coasters, an outlet cover, and concert tickets.

Buy one of those rectangular plastic laundry baskets.  Ask her to put things that are out of place in the basket somewhere out of reach of DS instead of in the toybox.  Then you can just take the basket, walk around and put things away.  It should only take a few minutes to put things away each time and you won't have to dig through the toybox to find what is and is not child-safe.  I found this worked.  The housekeeper put the laundry basket on the floor of the hall closet so that it was out of sight and out of reach of kids and I could get to it sometime after I got home and had a minute.  The only problem with "out of sight" is that sometimes I forgot and would find the basket of things in the closet a few days later.[/quote]
