I know Im visual and I like toseewhat other peoples spaces look like.
So here are somehome school room ideasto inspire you!
Homeschool Room Ideas
You see everything has a place.
We had all the toys, tools, maps, and resources we needed to do school and life.
But you seejust because things are organized doesnt mean it is de-cluttered or nice!
I decided it was time to simplify!
We have a great public library nearby, we can always borrow some.
I reduced our toys.
Over the course of birthdays, Christmas, and garage sales we had accumulated a lot of toys.
They were all nice, but we just had too many.
So… we went through and got rid of worn, hardly used, duplicate purpose toys.
Moving all of our furniture was a LOT of work!
My desk was heavy, as was the aquarium, but we made it work.
It took me a couple hours to tape & paint the first coat.
We used the Behr paint with primer built in and found we only needed one coat score!
They were super easy to put together and are VERY sturdy!
We got the large 55 unit (25 cubbies) and Im so glad we did.
We got whiteDRONA boxesto for some of our cubbies.
These boxes are much larger & heavier duty than the canvas ones you will find at Target.
Again, worth the investment.
I was a little worried at first about white.
Now it is neat & de-cluttered too!Do you feel calm and ready to learn?
Our corner with our Ikea shelves has a loveseat.
Notice the empty wall space to the right of couch and left of bookshelf.
Having open wall space it important to having an open, inviting learning space.
The table serves as a coffee table and activity table for our kids.
Underneath are train tracks & Duplos for the kids to build with.
This is a great multi-purpose space.
Instead of our large multi unit kitchen we got a compact all-in-one.
The kids love all the cool sound effects & lights in our new set!
In case you were wondering we have theStep 2 LifeStyle Dream Kitchenand we LOVE it!
I highly recommend it!
Again, notice the empty walls which make the room feel bigger and cleaner!
I included a picture so you could see how the room runs into the front entry way.
Our reading nook is by lots of natural light.
The shelf was a cheap find at a garage sale.
It is also going to be great for our study of the United States this year!
It also allows me to blog while the kids are playing or doing independent seat work.
Notice that I have only a picture or two on the top of all my surfaces.
OurHomeschool workboxesare still working out great!
Basically these are a great way to help us keep organized and keep any projects or books organized.
Kids in Kindergarten on up have a box per subject.
they need for that subject.
Toddlers or Preschoolers have one box a day.
Youll find puzzles, simple worksheets, learning resource items, counting mats, and more.
We are fortunate to have a separate table in the kitchen where we eat.
Clean, uncluttered surfaces are more inviting to learn at!
We love this holder we got at Target dollar section.
it’s possible for you to get a similar one at IKEA too.
This is the only thing allowed to be on our dinning room table.
Everything else goes back in the correct workbox after we finish the subject.
By keeping the house clean as we go we always feel comfortable inviting neighbors in at a moments notice.
