    I've got quite a few of these - the car one for toy cars, the lego design one for Duplo etc.

    I usually go for more natural/neutral storage, but these are handy. As an added bonus, they are strong enough for the children to sit on, so double up as seating.

    Thanks mouse, I'm after either plastic or faux leather because they need to be wipe down. They're for a cloakroom porch area rather in my main home so just need to be able to clean them. You would have thought they were easy to find but I'm struggling to get quite what I need! :-)

    Thanks lk, sadly not! They've gotta be boxes not ottomans because they'll sit up on a bench.

    Oh wow these are lovely, do you think fibreboard is wipe clean? I've never heard of it! I thought they were too expensive initially but looks like the price is for a set of two :-)

    Goodness gracious me...how many more types of containers can you all find?
    Googler of the year goes to lollipop kid though!.


    Mumofone...any reason why the containers have to be collapsable?....or do you mean you want to put them away at the end of the day...so they need to be folding ones?
    just thinking of the problems they could pose? ...it's ok I am just thinking aloud
