You would be surprised how much weight a good hook can hold. I personally have been using hooks and just thought of the idea to get cloth bags from Michaels and have the kids decorate them- then have them hang on the hooks under their coats - to hold gloves and scarfs.
This way the kids will:
- always have a place to put them after use
- always know where to look for them
- develop cleanliness and organization skills starting from 2 years and up!
