It will fit 15 colored easy to reach plastic bins (not supplied) for toys along the bottom and there are then slots for arts and crafts materials, artwork or books along the top. The trouble with normal toy storage is that it is never big enough for your child’s ever expanding toy collection so if you get something large enough in the beginning you will have a large piece of furniture to keep your child going for years.
