Posted - Mar 17 2008 : 10:20:46 PM Are little apartment will have 3 bedrooms, so I would like to give Charlie some space for creativity (our "office" will be in there too, so I can be there with him). I am looking for some creative ideas with salvaged items or inexpensive in cost.
So far: 1) Tent- I am going to buy a fun twin sheet, hang dowels from string from the ceiling and string the sheet through. 2) I have some cool baskets to organize his toys 3) Constructing a felt board out of a large cork board covered with the felt. Cutting out shapes in felt like letters, shapes, animals, fruit
Things I have to work with: sleeping mat that could be used for tumbling or to sleep in his tent and I have some of those large alphabet foam floor blocks.
Things I am looking for: low table for him to draw/play at and on w/ 2 chairs toddler dress up clothes for a boy w/ a peg rack to hang the clothes on
Any ideas?? (Keep in mind, it is an apartment, so no major renovations) Thanks!!!
Cheers, Heather
