A MUM who had four kids in four years has revealed what their playroom looks like when the toys are all out – and it has amazed other parents.
Fatima Smith showed the carpet of the large room strewn with toys and said the family desperately needed to do a clear-out.
She said on her @lovebuildshome account: “Have 4 children in 4 years they said.
“Host birthday parties they said.
“Ask for no toys but still receive nothing but toys they said.”
Thankfully, she managed to muster up the will to sort out the toys and shared a video of the process.

She continued: “My kids woke up and chose violence as they dumped everything out.
“4 big bags of toys being donated and 5 smaller bags of trash later.
“We are now a minimalist playroom for the rest of time.”
The finished result looked much tidier and less over-stimulating for the kids.

Many people were incredulous at the amount of toys, with one saying: “They don't need that much toys.”
Another continued: “Too many toys even with 4 kids.”
And many replied to her comment about having a large family, with one saying: “Who said to have 4 kids in 4 years?”
A second agreed: “Not one single soul said to have 4 children in 4 years.”
However, many mums related to the mess and said it looked like a typical scene in their house.
One TikTok user commented: “people are so generous but I'm like please I'm drowning in toys and they only play with them when they're set up nicely and rotated.”
