Writing station

The older diva has taken a strong interest in letters and writing lately, so today I created a writing station for her.  She has been sitting at it, working quietly (well, as quietly as one can work when they are whistling while they work) for about 20 minutes now with no signs of losing interest.  So, I would say it's a hit!

With little room to create new spaces, I usually end up swapping out one station for another.  This time, I swapped out the art station.  The divas tend to drag all of their art supplies to the dining room table anyway, so I decided it wasn't worth a dedicated space for those materials.  Now, to figure out where to house the art supplies.  Ha!

The writing station is simple.  I used a free-standing file organizer that was a thrift store find for most of the materials, which left most of the table free to use as actual work space.

The items in the file organizer are:

- Alphabet tracing mats (I have dry erase crayons in a flower pot for use with these)

- Manuscript writing paper

- Alphabet stencils

- My Little Numbers booklet (great little freebie on TPT!)

- Envelopes

- Index cards

- Foil stickers that look like stamps

I also added this cute little Hello Kitty mailbox that I got for less than a dollar on clearance in the Target dollar section.

Next up on the blog this week will be the sink station I created for the younger diva.  Both girls are really enjoying that one! 

Blessings!
