    Our entire main level is completely off-limits to any dayhome related stuff because I use my basement for the dayhome. My basement has a kitchennette, bathroom, nap room, and two big play areas.

    I've been planning and I think I'll it up like this:
    -Reading nook in one corner, with comfy chairs or bean bags, puppets
    -Dramatic play area with a play kitchen, rack with aprons and chefts hat, dolls and their dress up clothes, a chalkboard for playing teacher, costumes, etc.
    -Manipulatives/Blocks area with train sets, blocks, puzzles, etc.
    -Water/Sensory table in a corner
    -Art area-I'd use the child's table I use for eating but have a storage compartment with all the crafts/art stuff like papers, coloring books, paint brushes, paint, smocks, etc.
    -Free play area with ride on/push toys, and other random toys

    Do you have any ideas what I could use as a neat way to display the children's art?

    Used to do this at one daycare center that I worked at: Take a rope and nail each end into the wall, the it hang like a clothesline, and then hang the art work with clothesline clips (for some reason I can think of the name of them). It's a great way to hang to dry as well.
