A complete tour of kids’ bathroom organization ideas + all of the best organizers to make every bathroom tidy.
Unexpectedly, I took a few days off from blogging to rest. Renovation aftermath from the rec room left me wiped out, and I needed a short break to recharge and get the house back in order.
While I was working on the kids’ bathroom—after it had been through a kid-created tornado—I took a few phone photos to document the setup. I thought sharing a full tour, along with the organizers I use throughout our home, might be helpful if you’re planning a small bathroom refresh or looking to tame a child-friendly space.
Kids’ Bathroom Organizing Ideas:
1. Acrylic Drawer Organizers
Clear acrylic compartments are my go-to for small drawers. They make narrow cupboards and tiny vanity drawers feel twice as functional by separating toothpaste, brushes, hair ties, and small toiletries so everything is visible and easy to grab.
We have a console-style sink with very narrow drawers, so these compartments allow us to dedicate one tiny drawer to dental items and the other to brushes and hair accessories. For guests, individually wrapped biodegradable toothbrushes are a nice touch to keep on hand.
2. Bath Toy Scooper & Storage
A handled toy scooper with a draining base is perfect for end-of-bath cleanup. The handle makes it easy for kids to collect floating toys, and the removable base catches excess water so toys dry without pooling moisture on the floor.
3. Lidded Baskets for Sheets
A small linen closet is a game-changer in a bathroom. Lidded baskets keep extra sheets and pillowcases neatly separated and dust-free. They’re an easy way to store seasonal bedding or different sheet sizes without creating a cluttered shelf.
4. Stackable Acrylic Drawers
Stackable clear drawers are ideal for storing frequently used items in plain sight. I use them for guest toiletries, bath salts, cotton swabs, nail polish, and small cleaning supplies. Clear drawers keep things accessible and help prevent wasted time hunting for essentials.
5. Lidded Jars
Lidded jars are useful for storing cotton balls, bar soap, bath salts, or little first-aid items. For homes with younger children, acrylic versions offer the look of glass without the risk of breakage.
6. Deep Handled Canvas Baskets
Deep canvas baskets are great for maximizing tall or deep shelving. Use them to keep extra toilet paper, a humidifier, washcloths, or bulk toiletries neatly grouped and easy to pull out when needed.
7. Caddies
Small caddies fit inside handled baskets for quick access to full-size shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap refills, or pet products like dog shampoo. Larger caddies are perfect for holding cleaning supplies and making it easy to carry them from room to room on cleaning days.
8. Wheeled Light/Dark Hampers
Wheeled hampers with separate compartments for lights and darks make laundry sorting visual and easy for kids. The wheels help when it’s time to move laundry to the machine.
9. Large Handled Woven Basket
Oversized woven baskets are versatile: roll up extra blankets or store backup quilts, and keep them handy without cluttering the closet.
Now that everything has a designated place, I hope the setup encourages better habits—though with kids, it’s likely to be tidy for just a short while! Still, intentional organization makes daily routines smoother and cleanup faster.
