The Kids' New Office

Since Caleb has moved into Aidan’s room upstairs, Mike and I decided over the summer to turn Caleb’s nursery into an office for both of the boys since they were both starting school this coming fall. Both boys love their new office. They enjoy drawing on the large dry erase board, using the pencil and crayon sharpeners, and studying their weekly calendars to see what’s going on. Caleb enjoys sitting at his desk doing cutting projects while Aidan likes to sit at his desk exploring his globe. The best part for me is that there is a place for everything. Hooks for the backpacks, a clip line for the artwork, wall folders for papers sent home, and the shelves for holding supplies. Some other fun elements that the boys enjoyed seeing in their office were the dinosaur growth chart, the M&M clock (Mike and I frequently reward the kids with mini M&M’s for good behavior and hard work), pictures of themselves on the wall, and the rocket ship hooks for their backpacks (that I made). Now Mike is asking me to help him decorate his office at work…hmmm…I bet his patients would enjoy sitting in his office watching an M&M clock tick the minutes away and noticing Mike's lab coat hanging on a rocket ship hook. LOL!
