If you have young children, most likely they don’t have 50 pairs of shoes. But even if they have four pairs of shoes, creating a place for them to keep their shoes organized will help teach them early about organization.

When it comes to organization for kids, there is one word to remember: SIMPLE. The shoe storage solutions that you have in place for your child, should allow them to be able to put their shoes up and get them out by themselves.

Here are some ideas for storing childrens’ shoes:

Under the Bed Shoe storage: There are some great products on the market for under the bed shoe storage for kids. They have a handle and a clear top, which allows for easy access and is easy for them to see their shoes.

Small Shoe Rack: Not only can they see their shoes easily, but it makes it easy for them to put away and take off.

Shoe Cubby: This is another item that makes it easy for kids to put their shoes away.

I do not recommend shoe containers because not only can the lids be difficult to take off, but most children will not want to take off a lid and put it back on just to get a pair of shoes. Remember, simple is the key.
