Hi @LyonStill,
We shut the classroom down during the bitter cold days of winter because it is too cold for use. I have an indoor classroom too that we use. But for moderately cold weather, we just modify the types of activities we do so that the children can still be out there as much into the colder seasons as possible. Warm water for waterplay instead of cold and so on.

The yellow window easel is used for painting, shave cream, dry erase markers, foam stickons, gel stickons, window washing, and so on. It is always in use and needs repainted now!

@MadeItToTheMoon - With the classroom being surrounded by very large windows and very little wall space, the children still play extremely calm in this space. I also am a big fan of the Reggio Emilia but with a splash of color:) Hey - and thanks for being a longtime follower! That rocks!
