1- Sort the the toys with the kids as angelshepherd said.
or
2- Take all the toys and put them in a large storage bin or two. Leave a few of your kids favorites. For a few days let them play with those and make sure they get put away every night. Then over the next week give them a few toys back and then a few more. Don't give them more though until they know how to organize the last bunch. So if the toys aren't put away no more 'new' toys next week.
(I remember as a kid my mom took some of my toys and put them in a box for about a year or more. When I got the box back it was like Christmas!)
Hope this helps
The kids may eventually get more organized with storage space and bins at their disposal, or you may have to resign yourself to 20 years of chaos. Some personalities are happiest with organization, and some are happiest with everything in one giant pile (eeaaaghhh! how can you LIVE like this?!?! Are those truck parts in your laundry basket?) and a stack of empty organizers in the corner. Hopefully you did not accidentally name a child after a hurricane that was so devastating that the weather service retired that name :-)
