Making a Kid’s Room Transition Go Well

Written by Jessica

Moving phases for nostalgic  freaks (like Ryan and Me):

Phase one: Treasure the present. Feel the room with your eyes and heart. Take pictures.

Phase two: Talk about setting what “is” into the what “was” category. Nuts and bolts of the moving plan can be discussed.

Phase three: Firm up memories. Remember when you did this or that, here and there…

Phase four: Make doing things in the room special by doing them, one final time.
