Geekling's bedroom - 3 years old

We've made a number of changes to Geekling's room around his 3rd birthday.  The biggest change was moving to a single left bed.  His toddler bed was getting too small, especially when he'd occasionally want one of us to lay with him for a cuddle.  We worried the new bed would be a bit high up but he had no problem climbing in and out, and manages to do so on his own at any hour of the day or night.

 View from the doorway - the loft bed.  Lots of storage.  There is a pull out desk part but at the moment that is in the far left corner, with the tubs stacked by it, as Geekling loves to use the cubby hole as a reading nook.  We bought a cheap LED touch light from IKEA that is a magnet and it sticks to the underside of the bed which is a metal frame.

New 'big boy bookshelves' - we previously used the bookshelves in our loungeroom but replaced them.  The bottom shelf holds his trains and balls, the next two shelves house his books.  Above is his basket of finger puppets, his money box, a photo or picture of his choice and his bug catcher.  Above is things that he needs supervision with.

The small table works wonderfully for a small train set up, matching games, using his zen garden and all manner of work.  We must replace the rocking octopus with a proper chair but right now he enjoys it as is. 

The white wardrobe and drawers will soon be replaced with a woodgrain color to match the rest of the furniture, and the white furniture will be transferred to the new baby's room.  

The room is starting to look quite cramped in photos due to the size of the bigger furniture and angle of the door but it has plenty of floor space, especially for a little person.
