One of my biggest challenges in life is controlling the toy situation.  I know, I’ve got it so bad, right?!  With three girls in the house under 7, you can only imaging the Barbie situation… clothes, shoes, little tiny pieces of food and tons of accessories.  It’s enough to make a mom go mad.
I was offered the opportunity to try out a product called ZipBin.  ZipBins zip up to form boxes, backpacks and storage boxes and as a mom…storage anything is my best friend!  What a great gift for the holidays… one that mom and child will love!
We got the Fairy Castle ZipBin playset.  Here is the description:
The Fairy Castle bin’s attractive, colorful exterior will look great in your child’s room. When the bin is unzipped, it becomes a play mat! This activity center is perfect for dolls, ponies, other animals, etc. Fantasy play is encouraged by a sparkling castle, a magic forest, an enchanted waterfall and shimmering ponds. When play is done, the play mat becomes the storage bin in a zip, capturing the toys inside. The ZipBin™ Fairy Castle takes the work out of having fun. A play, clean-up and storage solution.
And the features:
  • Colorful, durable, wipe-clean surfaces
  • Stackable, portable and collapses flat for storage
  • Sturdy, heavy-duty zippers
  • Lid fasteners
  • Clear label holder for identifying contents
  • Meets child safety standards
  • Patent pending
  • Win it!

    One lucky winner will win a ZipBin of their choice!
