l is for legoland

when we bring out the legos, it makes sense to me that keeping them in tubs or on shelves isn’t practical.

especially when there is a certain blue piece with a curvy edge that has to be found.

so this year i set out a couple of area rugs and called them “legoland.”  this is where we kept the legos.

when it was time to clean up at the end of the week and going outside to run and scream was really what we were ready for, tossing the legos in was a great compromise.

h is for house

a “house” was made with a long piece of fabric* threaded through the ceiling tile.  very fun.

we kept the table under it until we finished a house project.  then we attached the “house” to two rocking chairs.

 

this means that when you sit under the house and someone rocks in the chairs, there is a beautiful sweeping motion.  ahhhhhhh.

*i bought this roll of fabric at the thrift shop not knowing what i would use it for.  many things so far!
