Our new schoolroom

Luke has been hard at work finishing the basement. We have a schoolroom, a sewing area, play area, and family room now! Here are the pictures of the schoolroom.

The front of the room - it's great having the whiteboard hung up instead of propped against a chair!


Ethan's desk and a second desk. Sometimes Alex sits and scribbles in a coloring book, or has a snack, or Ethan might use it for one of his stuffed animals to sit near him. Today it was a penguin sitting with him. You'll notice Ethan is rolling around on the floor on the left side of the picture.


Part of our "library" system:


Game and toy storage, as well as activities for Alex during school to help keep him occupied.


More books (some of my craft stuff is on the right; you can ignore that!):


It's so nice having a separate area for all our school stuff! We still do some of our work on the couch or in a recliner snuggled up together reading, but this is a great area! Oh, and the lighting is better than it looks - I'm not sure if it's me or the camera, but this is the best I could do.

Hooray for a schoolroom! It looks awesome. I'm sure you're loving having a space that is just for school.
