Try the floor monster!
Mommy/parent calls the floor monster on her pretend phone and then she turns into floor monster!
When she sees toys on the floor, she runs over to gobble the toys up.
Floor monster must move slowly because the trick is to roar and pretend to want to eat the toys, but your kids must save the toys before floor monster gobbles them up!
It's fun for kids and works quite well in motivating kids to clean up their toys so their toys won't get eaten by floor monster!
The secret is that floor monster never actually makes it in time to gobble up a toy because kids move much faster.
If floor monster does happen to get a toy, hide it somewhere and tell the kids they must do a better job so that toy can return. I never had to do that though because my kids moved too fast before floor monster gobbled up their toys!
Floor monster only eats toys from the floor, so if kids clean them up, the toys won't be at risk of being gobbled up!
