At a certain age, kids become obsessed with all things Lego. It is inevitable, and there’s no fighting it. But while you’re powerless to this phenomena, you’re not at the mercy of a cluttered living space and treacherous walkway. Your solution is Lego storage, a cottage industry that has sprung up to aid ailing parents who have seen the Lego dump truck back up to their homes and disgorge a load of sharp-cornered bricks and brightly colored minifigures. The best Lego storage solutions are easy for both you and your child, while the furniture provides a wide area on which to build. Granted, none are going to end up on the pages of Architectural Digest, but they will save your sanity and protect your feet. Those two combined are worth at least the cost of a few Harry Potter kits.
