"No excse is a good excuse, and a good excuse is good for nothing."  My favorite quote for myself, and for others..........

"Our prime purpose in life is to help others, and if you can't 

can't help them, at least don't hurt them".

To lighten things up, what quotes do you want to share with children?  

We are redecorating a bedroom, strictly designated for our two grandchildren (boy 8 years old and girl 3 years old).  It will be decorated in red, white, and blue.  Not gender-specific.  In honor of America.  

Have ordered this sign:

"Promise me you'll always remember

You're braver than you believe,

Stronger than you seem,

Smarter than you think,

And LOVED more than you know."

Christopher Robin to Pooh

and then:

"Oh, the places you'll go"

Dr. Seuss

We plan to cover the walls with pictures of grand places in America and abroad.  I have already ordered a collage of pictures of several European capitals, as well.  

It it will be a room they hopefully will always remember from their overnight stays with Mimi and Opa.

Sorry, this is not a decorating thread, but I could not resist.

I think this is the coolest thing I've ever heard of! I know a lot of grandparents make a bedroom for when the grands come to visit/stay, but the thought and genius that you have come up with for this room is just amazing. I love it.

If you could patient that idea you should!
