    I am the opposite by the looks of things. I let free play be that free play. I have tons of toys and by tons I mean tons! LOL Most days you cannot even walk across the floor but that is OK with me. They are all playing with something different and having fun. There are multiple things being played with together. I love watching them use their imaginations. I do have a few rules though. Costumes must be put back in the bucket and not just thrown on the floor and books must be put back once they read them so they don't get ripped. I also make the kids clean up after themselves. I do not help. For the little ones (under 2) I sit on the floor and hand them things I know they can put away (little people, blocks, cars). It usually takes a good 30 minutes to clean up, we only clean up once.

    Currently we are upstairs as my basement is redone so I have a smaller amount of toys. I still do the same other than they must keep the toys out of the kitchen and not too many things down the hall.

    One thing about letting them take everything out is running in the house is never an issue lol.
