We have been struggling to keep our toy room clean and organized since moving into our rental. If you have kids you know the struggle of keeping the toys picked up while also keeping them accessible for the kids.
When we moved into our rental we decided to make one of the bedrooms into a playroom. The bedroom had a walk-in closet with shelves, so we put the toys in the closet thinking the kids would pull them out. Wrong.
While the shelves made it easy to somewhat organize the toys. The shelves were all too high for our kids to easily get the toys.
So we had a problem we needed a way to keep the toys somewhat organized and easy for the kids to get.
When we found that Little Colorado has partnered with Bannor toys to introduce the Whale, Elephant, and Train toy boxes we were so excited to try using one in our playroom.

Wooden Toy Box Review
All of these toy boxes are so cute and I would love to get one of each of them! We decided that the elephant was the one we wanted to get first.
The toy box arrived well packaged in the mail in a huge box. The little man was so excited to open.
The elephant toy box was completely assembled and ready to use as soon as we pulled it out of the box.
The view from each side is the same so you can place the elephant facing either direction. Between the two elephant-shaped sides is a good-sized box to store toys.
Very Sturdy and Well Built
As soon as we pulled out the toy box the little man ran to get toys to put in the box and then quickly climbed on top of them.
Thank goodness the toy box is extremely well built and could easily hold his weight. It’s very sturdy and easily stayed standing while my 4-year-old was climbing all over it.
Natural Wood
The natural wood color of the toy box makes it easy to fit with different color and design styles. If you’re really artistic you could totally have fun painting it to your color scheme and adding details.
I love the simple wood finish so that is how our toy box will be staying.
Good Size
The toy box is a good size and can hold a surprising number of toys, yet it doesn’t feel like it takes up very much space in our playroom.
We are using the toy box to store all of our stuffed animals and puppets. But it would work great to hold any toys your children love.
Price
If you have only been looking at plastic toy boxes you might be surprised by the price of these wooden toy boxes. But if you look at other wooden toy boxes available these toy boxes are similarly priced and unique.
The quality of the toy box is definitely worth the price. It’s not something you will have to replace in just a couple of years, it’s something that was built to last.
Final Thoughts
The elephant toy box makes a perfect addition to our playroom. It keeps the toys up off the ground and easily accessible for our kids.
Plus the toy box has become a fun toy as well!
The little man love to climb on top of the pile of toys. While the little miss enjoys emptying the toy box before climbing inside.
The Elephant Toy Box is something we look forward to using for many years to come.
The amazing quality makes this toy box something we will be able to have long after our kids no longer fit inside their cute elephant. Who knows one day our grandkids could enjoy climbing in this same toy box.
Which of these toy boxes would you love to add to your home?
