Question about the room challenge :P
So you need to build a bedroom for 2 kids, but does it have to be for 2 kids of the family?
Or just have enough for 2 kids of any age or gender?
Yes, it should be two kids of this family Read the challenge description/brief to see which kids could possibly room together.

The front stick-out is the study and the living room, the back stick-out is the kitchen with eat-in dining table. I find this layout very playable as my preference for playing large families is to be on one level. This is a nice fenced lot near a playground with plenty of greenery around even though it is in the city.

GALLERY COST: 58.480 Simoleons
TOTAL COST: 59.980
LINK TO ENTRY SLIDESHOW: I have split them up in separate links for each floor, hope that's okay
ENTRY DETAILS:
This house is built to provide natural air conditioning, by putting most of the living areas in the basement, where the temperature is more constant. It does have a thermostat, just in case the temperature does need to get regulated manually. The attic features a master bedroom, space to hang laundry, and a small study area. The ground floor has a live-in kitchen, bathroom, and a bedroom. The basement features a living room, two bedrooms, a bathroom and an extra room.
When the family heard the house they built was for them, they were overjoyed. The parents decided to spend the money mostly on family spaces and the kids’ rooms and kept their own bedroom simple but comfortable. Emelda wants to get big in fashion, and because she has a job and is making money of her own, she has a big walk-in closet for all the clothes she’s certainly going to buy now. She also got her own laptop for schoolwork and fashion designing. The bedroom on the ground floor has been designated the toddler/baby room and is least decorated of all, as the family figured the tot and baby would grow out of it so fast it was a waste of money to decorate it too much. The shared kids’ room, however, has been fully decorated to each kid’s individual taste. They each have their own desk for doing homework and they both got to choose how to paint their own half of the room and what carpets to get on the floor, etc. The extra room was turned into an activities room and was decorated using a little of everybody’s input. It features many different activities, so the kids can finally have a chance at developing whatever skill they want to. For the living room, the family decided to keep it simple and cozy. They have a nice wood burner, a bunch of couches and comfy chairs, and plenty of plants to give the space a less basement-y feeling. Every bedroom has their own laundry basket, so collecting laundry is easy for whoever is doing it this time (this family all do their part in the household). There is a clothesline outside, and one in the attic for the rare occasions of rain in the desert, or when a sandstorm is brewing. Outside on the patio they also have a small area dedicated to growing their own veggies, and an apple tree was planted outside to commemorate the joyous day of them moving into this wonderful house. The patio also features a barbecue and two picnic table, so they can all enjoy their meals outside if they want. At the side of the house there are two beehives and a lot of planted wild flowers, for mom’s new hobby: honey making. Then, at the back, there’s a little woodworking shed for dad, and a play area for the kids, including a kiddie pool to cool off in the desert heat.

ENTRY DETAILS: After living for some time in a house made of cardboard we thought the family would enjoy a traditional and homey building. The parents room is downstairs and we tried to create an en suite bathroom mixed with a shared half bathroom for family and visitors. A living room with a reading nook and the eat-in kitchen complete this floor. Upstairs is for the kids. The baby and the toddler share a room ready for two toddlers and easy to upgrade for two kids. Bernardo has his own bedroom and the two big sisters share a bedroom. The laundry and another full bath equipped with a potty for the toddlers are in this floor too. From the kitchen or by the right side of the house you can access the backyard, with a swing, a kiddie pool and a sandbox for the children; and a table under an umbrella for the grown ups. The lot is open in the back as there’s a community bbq zone where they will be able to mingle with the neighbors.
It isn’t often you meet a client at a site, but this is the perfect day for it. The sun is shining and the whole land seems to turn its face toward its warmth and smile. There is a gentle breeze rustling through the trees and a bee bumbles past you as you walk from your car toward the shrieks of laughter coming from the children.
From across the field you see Mrs. Davis smile and wave at you. You return the gesture and soon are shaking hands.
“Thank you so much for agreeing to meet me here,” Mrs. Davis says.
“It is my pleasure,” you say. “Such a beautiful site. And the children already seem to love it!”
“We are hoping to make that a reality for many more children,” she says. “So many kids who have only ever known the city. Summer camp might be the first time they’ve ever been around trees and open air.”
You nod and take out your notebook. “So what are you looking for?”
“The usual, mostly,” Mrs. Davis says as she fends off a pair of rambunctious children playing swords with sticks. “Cabins for the kids, toilets and baths, mess hall, office...”
You are both distracted by the sudden wail of a child having fallen down and scraped a knee. Another adult scoops him up.
“Oh yes, and a nursing station,” she says with a sigh. “Of course, outdoor activities, too. That is the main point.”
“Of course,” you agree, jotting down ideas already as you look around you and think of how you can fit things in without losing the natural beauty here.
“When do you think it can be ready?” Mrs. Davis asks.
“I think you can expect your first batch of summer camp recruits two weeks from now,” you say with a smile, loving how surprised she looks.
THE BRIEF:
The Budget is §199,000 (lot cost must be included in this amount)
On at least a 30x40 lot
Include cabins or tents for at least 8 children
The camp also needs hygiene facilities, a dining hall, communal gathering area, director's office, nurse's office, and at least three outdoor activities for the campers.
Include plenty of nature elements on the site.
Room Challenge:
Create the dining hall. The budget is §15,000.
Sims Challenge:
Create Pam Davis, camp director, and two camp counselors.
Great job everyone who entered #BnS121 Breaking Out of the Box! I am amazed at the varity of homes and the amount of items included in each build! Well done everyone!!!!
Wow everyone. You all did such a good job on this challenge. Everyone's designs are so creative. I entered a family this time not sure if i did the side show very well for them or gave enough info so looking forward to finding out what i did right and what i forgot. Thanks #BnS for awesome challenges.

I am thinking I would like to make my camp in Granite Falls. Does anyone know how I figure out the lot cost for that?
Just go to build mode (without having sims move in) and buldoze the lot, then click the top left house icon (with the ''i'') and that should say the lot cost.
I did the same thing with the granite falls lots yesterday

CHALLENGE #121 - Breaking Out of the Box -
FORUM ID: 13Vader
ORIGIN ID: 13Vader
LEVEL: Master
SIMS 4 LOT NAME: Cookout Lookout
NEW LOT LINK: Outbox Thinking
LOT COST: § 2.000
GALLERY COST: § 58.000
TOTAL COST: § 60.000
LINK TO ENTRY SLIDESHOW: BnS #121 Outbox Thinking
ENTRY DETAILS: After living for some time in a house made of cardboard we thought the family would enjoy a traditional and homey building. The parents room is downstairs and we tried to create an en suite bathroom mixed with a shared half bathroom for family and visitors. A living room with a reading nook and the eat-in kitchen complete this floor. Upstairs is for the kids. The baby and the toddler share a room ready for two toddlers and easy to upgrade for two kids. Bernardo has his own bedroom and the two big sisters share a bedroom. The laundry and another full bath equipped with a potty for the toddlers are in this floor too. From the kitchen or by the right side of the house you can access the backyard, with a swing, a kiddie pool and a sandbox for the children; and a table under an umbrella for the grown ups. The lot is open in the back as there’s a community bbq zone where they will be able to mingle with the neighbors.
CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM: Yes, please.

It isn’t often you meet a client at a site, but this is the perfect day for it. The sun is shining and the whole land seems to turn its face toward its warmth and smile. There is a gentle breeze rustling through the trees and a bee bumbles past you as you walk from your car toward the shrieks of laughter coming from the children.
From across the field you see Mrs. Davis smile and wave at you. You return the gesture and soon are shaking hands.
“Thank you so much for agreeing to meet me here,” Mrs. Davis says.
“It is my pleasure,” you say. “Such a beautiful site. And the children already seem to love it!”
“We are hoping to make that a reality for many more children,” she says. “So many kids who have only ever known the city. Summer camp might be the first time they’ve ever been around trees and open air.”
You nod and take out your notebook. “So what are you looking for?”
“The usual, mostly,” Mrs. Davis says as she fends off a pair of rambunctious children playing swords with sticks. “Cabins for the kids, toilets and baths, mess hall, office...”
You are both distracted by the sudden wail of a child having fallen down and scraped a knee. Another adult scoops him up.
“Oh yes, and a nursing station,” she says with a sigh. “Of course, outdoor activities, too. That is the main point.”
“Of course,” you agree, jotting down ideas already as you look around you and think of how you can fit things in without losing the natural beauty here.
“When do you think it can be ready?” Mrs. Davis asks.
“I think you can expect your first batch of summer camp recruits two weeks from now,” you say with a smile, loving how surprised she looks.

I am not the only one writing challenges, and this is not mine. But I agree--this is an awesome challenge!
Just go to build mode (without having sims move in) and buldoze the lot, then click the top left house icon (with the ''i'') and that should say the lot cost.
I did the same thing with the granite falls lots yesterday
