Do your kids have a normal room?

What does a normal room look like? Depends on where you are, I suppose, and the purpose of the room. But would a kid's room in Idaho really look all that different from one in Finland? Normal Room is a website that will let you find out. Basically, it's a collection of user-submitted photos of rooms in their houses, with information on the type of house or apartment, location, and people living there.

The Kid's Room category is a little sparse yet, but I could definitely see this as being a fascinating reference to show your kids that no, other children do NOT have a slide, secret passageway, and video game arcade in their bedrooms. One thing I did notice is the pervasiveness of Ikea furniture. I saw a lot of pieces I recognized and even a few that I or friends own.

This is fun!

I hope the right people will see it and see the ones off the beaten path.

I just hate all those idiots on the house selling shows who are like "why is there a computer in here, ewww" Duh, you don't have to do that if you buy the house!

Or my InLaws who just cannot cope with the art supplies and set up in our diningroom.

What I noticed was the floor. You can actually see it. In a kid's room.

How can I get my teenage son to open up?

AdviceMama Says:

Start by teaching him that it is safe to do so.
