    Default Magnatile storage

    For those who have magnatiles - how do you store them? Do you keep them out all the time? My girls seem to like them, but they tend to forget about toys they don't see, so I don't really want them *too* out of sight. Do you keep them in their regular box, or transfer them to a plastic container?

    We keep ours in a clear rectangular shaped Rubbermaid container with a lid.

    We got an open basket with handles from Joann's and it stays in the corner of the living room. The girls play with the magnatiles nearly every day, and this makes cleanup quick & easy while still looking fairly neat.

    I have a small canvas bin (as we have only 2 small sets of Magnatiles) that I bought from Target. It has no lid and it's a great size for easy transport.

    200 in a wicker basked in the bottom of the Expedit. They don't forget about them, and the Exp. has some nice wooden floor play space right in front. I like that I can slip them in the top of the bin w/o sliding it out or taking a top off.

    Have been played with regularly for the past 3-4 years and are kept in the same type of container.

    Container Store multipurpose bin. The 100 piece set fits nicely into the medium sized one.
