DOM & Little Academy 1

44. New babies

We finished getting ready and left our rooms. We walked down the halls and stares until we made it to room 100. When we walked in, all eyes were on us. We had made it with 10 minutes to spare. Tiggger's whole family was there. But I noticed that Michel and Samantha were there as well. Sara and her secretary were over in one corner talking until she saw us walk in. That's when she approached the group standing around in the middle of the room.

"Now that we are all here, we can start."

============================================

Around the room, out of everyones's reach, there was a shelf. This shelf was only about a foot from the ceiling and it ran all the way around the room. On this shelf were stuffed animals of all kinds. They were old, but they looked brand new. There were Care Bears, Gummie Bears, My Little Pony's, Scooby Doo, Stich, Strawberry Shortcake, and more. They went all around the room. There had to of been at least 50 if not more. It looked like someone was a collector of old toys. And in fact, the school was. However this collection was better then any other out there. All of these toys would never be hurt again. They would stay in the perfect condition they are in for ever.

The rest of the room looked like a very large nursery. There were mats that covered the whole floor. Those same mats went up the walls a good 4 feet. Any child would be comfortable crawling on this padded floor. And if they tried to run in to a wall, they could not get hurt. This room was designed so kids could quite literally bounce off the walls. And one under 4 feet tall would have a hard time accidentally getting hurt here. Even the doors had padding stuck to them.

Starting at the four foot mark, the walls had pictures painted on them. One wall, where the cribs were, had a picture of a forest with a waterfall. The wall with the main door had 2 pictures. One where the forest contained from the sleeping area to the door. On the other side of the door was a beach with the ocean behind it. Palm trees were on ether side of that picture. Fallowing that around to the next wall was a desert seen. This one looked a little bland compared to the others. But in that section of the room was were the changing tables were. Those only took up about a quarter of that wall. At the other end, sectioned off with big 5 foot dividers, was a sink with a small fridge. In between that sectioned off space and the changing tables was another sink out in the open. You could tell that one was meant for people to wash up after changing one of the babies.

The back wall was the oddest of the bunch. At the 4 foot mark there was what looked like a deck all across the back wall. Under this deck is where all the toys were. Boxes, bens, and drawers were all full of toys. There were also shelves full of baby books. But above that deck the wall was black for a good 3 feet. The deck was only about 3 feet deep and had a railing that could easily be moved. It would take an adult to move the railing and it came apart in 6 foot sections. That would make it easier for the adults to put a child up there to draw on the wall with chalk and then get them down when they were done. Those railings went all the way up to the ceiling so no child could fall off the small deck. And if a child didn't want to come down, the railings would help with that problem too. They turned and would block that child in a small section. There were no stairs going up to that deck, so no potable way for a child to get up there without an adult being right there.

Lighting up this huge room were lights hanging from the ceiling. But none of them looked quite white. The exception  was the light in the middle of the room. But all around the room was different colors. The ceiling had stars that would glow in the dark. And there were black lights pointed up to make them glow. By the changing tables, dim amber lights glowed. It was enough to see, but not to harsh for the babies. By the cribs, it glowed a faint green. Under the deck it looked almost yellow. But above the deck, it was almost white. This room was made for the babies, not the caregivers.
