Now they have AquaDoodle and paint to do at the kitchen table while I cook or clean (picture shows Aqua Doodle in D's room instead of the kitchen). This works out much better since better they didn't get to paint that much since I had other things to do besides sit downstairs and watch them paint (got to make sure the 3yr old keeps the paint on paper). Now, we throw the plastic table cloth on the table and set out the paints and they paint while we do whatever close by. This is also how they play with the AquaDoodle. They both love the thing. I'm amazed how much they use it. We now have two of them so that they cover the whole table.
In J's room we put books on CD, coloring books, activities books, and general reading books for them to do together. In D's room we put music stuff, blocks and general reading books for them to do together. This way they have a few different things they can do upstairs.
We also changed the downstairs again. I didn't like where the school stuff was or how the computers where setup. We moved all the music stuff back into the "music room" which we had been using as the school area (computer area). It looks and works much better with all the music stuff setup in there. In the family room area where the music stuff was we put all the computers. Amazingly this looks really nice this way.
We are painting the laundry room which will become the school area also. This will work out better since all the school stuff is back in this area anyways since this is where all the storage is. This will also be helpful since we have a nice fold out table that all three of us can sit at to do our work and whatnot.
I'm amazed at how much I love it when we rearrange things!
