2. Organisation in the children's room with TROFAST boxes

We want to teach even small children to keep things organised in their nursery organisation . After all, a certain amount of structure is useful even for the youngest children and is also encouraged early on in Montessori education.

For this reason, we at Limmaland have designed order stickers with various symbols that provide an ideal basis for your IKEA TROFAST hacks. In this way, we give even very young children the opportunity to create their own organisation and build their own organisation system in their nursery. And they don't even need to be able to read, because the child-friendly symbols show exactly where things belong.

Our stickers for LEGO game pieces match the different colours. So even children have fun tidying up and keeping organisation organised.

IKEA TROFAST for laundry in the children's room

The order stickers for the IKEA TROFAST shelf is available with symbols for toys as well as for sorting laundry. The shelves are also ideal as a mini wardrobe. Thanks to the child-friendly symbols, even the youngest children can learn to help themselves and know exactly where their trousers, T-shirt etc. belong.

6. Convert TROFAST into a desk

Little artists need enough space to work. And that's exactly why we think this simple IKEA TROFAST hack is so brilliant!
Get a desk top from the DIY store and then screw it onto two TROFAST shelves. The width of your desk depends on whether you have the children's shelf in white or pine: This is because the white shelf, at 99 cm wide, is a whole 6 cm wider than the pine TROFAST. The depth of the desk top should be 44 cm in both cases - this is also the depth of the TROFAST shelf.

7. Feel and experience: Turn over the TROFAST shelf

Discover the world with all your senses - this also includes feeling and touching on your own.

Our IKEA hack: If you turn the TROFAST shelf upside down, you get a playing surface on the top that you can fill with shells, stones or dry pulses. The frame on which the TROFAST shelf actually stands on the floor prevents anything from rolling off. And the practical thing is that the TROFAST boxes also fit exactly into the frame.

8. Storage space in the table with TROFAST boxes

The IKEA FLISAT table can also be supplemented with TROFAST boxes.

The practical storage boxes fit perfectly into the recess under the removable table tops of the IKEA children's table. A really clever way to storage pens, paper and co.

9. TROFAST as a staircase

The IKEA TROFAST is a true all-rounder. You can even use it to build a staircase.

To do this, you need the TROFAST basic element measuring 99x44x94 cm. The shelf consists of 3 elements at different heights, which is perfect as a staircase. The IKEA KURA bunk bed can be easily pimped up and at the same time the boxes create additional storage space for the children's room.

11. Hang TROFAST on the wall

Hanging the children's shelf on the wall makes double use of the space. However, you should make sure that you use really thick wall plugs and that the TROFAST is really secure.

The disadvantage of hanging it on the wall: The kids can no longer reach the drawer themselves.
