I'm sure when I was a kid I had sighed the dreaded "I'm bored" at one time or another. However, I used to spend a lot of time in my room, by myself, working on art/craft projects and listening to music. I'd be in my own little world for hours, until my mom called me out (to wherever she was) to ask what I was up to. I think she'd get more bored all by herself.

Anyway, I think having a list or a jar, or whatever method you choose, for helping your child solve their boredom issue is a great idea! I'm pregnant with my first child, and while I know it'll be a few years before I come across this particular problem, I need all the "proactive" advice I can get. I agree with "Secret Agent Girl", and hope to be a "gentle" mother.

I agree that it looks good as is, but I'm also a big fan of color. I think a pale shade of aqua or a soft taupe would coordinate nicely. Although, I'd probably get carried away and paint my room a brighter shade.
