As a mother, you should be prepared for the activities involved in the two children sharing a room, especially if you are dealing with two young boys with little age difference between them. They can get dirty, you often find laundry and toys scattered all over the place.
Floor or bed toys, books, both drawing and reading scattered in more than one place, a poorly organized wardrobe, the list goes on and on. Yes, we know the feeling, what the pressure is right there.
Another problem may arise if a new building is erected near the boys’ rooms and their appearance deteriorates, and their windows may be damaged during construction and demolition. With all of this in mind, there can be only one thing on your mind, and we all agree, it’s time to rejuvenate.
Luckily for me, I had a friend, Tara, and along with her husband, we were able to turn the dirty dirt off the boys’ room into a beautiful Oasis for walls and mats. The space I didn’t know the room had was shocking (guess we have to pull out the old toys often). The walls have even been repainted to give the impression of a new room, though it is a better version of the old one.
The budget was lacking; the work took a few weeks and it was satisfying to have an excuse to remove the old items.
The boys will be happy with the renovation of the room, and with plenty of room and everything in order, they will be struck with a sense of commitment to keep it that way. At the very least, we hope that, after all, children will always be children.
