Prior to furnishing the room, it was an approximately twelve by sixteen foot caramel box with toys lined up around the walls.
To entice a little guy to explore, the toys needed to be placed at his eye-level, easily accessible. My daughter and I accomplished this by purchasing at Target two Circo bin organizers and two Circo book display shelves.
We also got a Circo toy chest.
Then to create a child-sized space, we purchased an indoor child's tent.
A bean bag chair gave the "men" a cushion for wrestling.
It was like Christmas morning for all of us. We adults were gleeful with child-like delight when we saw this little boy literally prance from one item to the next scarcely able to contain himself. What fun! Happy boy!
Happy Gigi!
It's been a little while since I've stopped by your blog. Your grandson is adorable! I'm glad he likes his new playroom.
ReplyDeleteAnd, I love the pictures of your son's outdoor facelift. When I drive around the development adjacent to LBC, I frequently wonder what some of those homes would look like with some alterations to the exterior. Apparently, the answer to my ponderings is that they could look wonderful!
