Cohousing-L Mailing List: Placement of children's playroom

[Jagate (Jagate]

We are currently designing our common house and trying to figure out where to
locate the children's playroom.  We have heard that the placement of the
kid's playroom can make or break a common house -- if it is too close to the
dining room and noisy then people will don't sit around and socialize after
meals, but if it is too far away then the kids won't want to go on their own
and will just play around their parents in the dining room, hence more noise
and a less than socialable environment.

We would love to hear what some of your experiences are with the placement of
the children's rooms.

Thanks,
Jory Agate
