A MUM who asked for advice on how to organise her kids’ room has been trolled for letting them have so many toys. 

The woman asked a Facebook group dedicated to organisation tips on how to save space in the bedroom, but was not expecting the critical comments she received.

The mum uploaded a video panning around the room, showing toys lining the walls and carpets, and bursting out of the toy chest. 

She wrote on the group: “Any ideas how to better organize this bedroom. 

“We have a 1 year old girl and 3 year old boy.. the closets are stuffed full as well.”

As the camera goes round the room, multiple toys are seen, from a large drawing easel, to boxes stacked nearly as high as the ceiling.

While she had expected help from the other parents in the group, some people took the opportunity to slam her for the amount of toys given to her kids. 

One wrote: “I’m in my 70s, I know people rise children differently,but my girls never had that many toys.”

Another added: “Agree with the toys. Too many, I would purge a ton.”

And one wrote: “I personally would do a purge, what I have found is that the more toys my kids have available to them the less they play, they get over stimulated or can’t find a clear place to play.”

However, one parent commented: “I think the room looks lovely.”
