Our house is standard in size and not very big, but we live comfotably in it. There are however a few additional rooms that I can think of that would be nice to have.. one day. One of them would be a play/ tv room for the children.
a Few nights ago, my husband and I were having a glass of wine around a fire on a lovely summers eve. We came up with a great idea… we were going to transform the small little storage room underneath our stairs into a make shoft play room.
The first weekend that came up, I relocated all the things that was stored under the stairs to the garage and other cupboards so that the room was empty. I then got a small dvd player as well as a small tv, and arranged the room to have a table and chairs for painting, drawing, playing with clay etc. I put a mattrass in front of the tv so that she can lie there and watch her movies, and I put her creative box (sciccors, crayons, paint, etc) close by. Her blocks and puzzles are also right there.
I painted the walls with fun pictures to finish it off.
Even though it is small, she absolutely loves her own little playing space and often retreats there to keep herself busy.
