I will admit that I have a slight problem: I buy Miss O far too many bath toys. Daddy is in charge of bath & bedtime. He is her bestest buddy and they have lots of fun together. I like to encourage them to play so I buy them more and more toys for the bath along with books to read at bedtime. The bathroom was beginning to turn into a mess of toys. We used the Boon Frog Pod for a while but the toys began to overflow. They spent their days just hanging out in the empty tub. I decided it was time to do something about it.

Searching around Pinterest I stumbled across a brilliant idea done by a few different people. It seemed like the best choice for our bathroom toy collection. I hate suction cups as they just never last. It was only recently installed but I’m hopeful that our system will last much longer than the suction on a little dome of plastic. So far I’m over the moon about this system for bath toy organization!

Items Required

• tension shower rod from home store
• plastic baskets with holes from dollar store (not too deep or the kids will bonk their heads!)
• shower hooks from dollar store (I suggest metal or S-type hooks – plastic can be hard to manoeuvre)
• that’s it!

How-To

1. Install the shower rod along the back wall of your tub about 6 inches up from the side of the tub. Ensure a tight fit – be sure to follow the instructions on the rod.
2. Put your shower hooks onto the rod.
3. Decide on basket placement and put the hooks through some of the holes on the basket.
4. Load them up with toys!
