You have:
*Three rooms on the main level. Two are average size and can be used as one large space or two average sized spaces. The third room is quite small and a separate room.
*The basement thats only usable for storage.
*A large bedroom on the second level.
You want:
*A living room for yourself that can be shared with the kids or for your use only.
*A decent sized play space for the entire group.
*A space where the 2+ yr olds can sit at a small table and do activities or small toys on trays, independently. Preferably where they trays can be accessible to the big kids but not the littles.
*Easily accessible toy storage for adult use only, especially for the items that would be used on trays for independent play.
*Play space(s) that are spacious, allow for lots of floor play (building train tracks, block creations, etc) but limit running and easy to tidy up. Simple, calm and inviting.
You & your group:
*Five children at any one time (government regulations) usually ranging in age from 10mos to 4.5yrs.
*Current group is 11mos, 18mos, 20mos, 2yrs, 3yrs and 3.5yrs.
*You are single, no kids of your own and live alone so you can do anything in the house you wish to.
I need suggestions on how to use the spaces available to meet as many of my goals as possible. I've given very few details on purpose because I'd like to see what people come up with. Feel free to be creative and think outside the box. I'm open to any and all suggestions & possibilities.
