Cubby House Fun

What to do on a cold, wintery morning?? Build a 'cubby owse' (as Q calls them). So in an effort to entertain two teething toddlers, a cubby house it was. After some furniture rearranging, this is what we came up with (using the most of the 'toy corner' and bookshelf). It had a sort of tunnel entrance by the wall!!


After both boys cracked the narnies, Granny very kindly came and took Q for a few hours while she did a few errands. Sebastian played very nicely (and contently) on his own, while I got stuck into the housework (in relative peace for a change).

Our very cheeky monkey (playing happily in what's left of the cubby house)!!

Here's a few snaps of the boys, taken this morning (both still in their pj's and nice warm, new, dressing gowns)! What am I talking about, Sebastian is still in his pj's!!




Sorry, this one's a bit blurry - he's waving a spatula around!!

I have to leave it at this for today!! Maybe next time we go to the park (like we did yesterday) I will remember to take my camera (and then some photo's)!!

Until next time...........LBQS

  4. A cubby house of your own is the most amazing thing when you’re five. There is a great range of cubbies on the market, from the very basic to the overly elaborate. It's important to place a cubby house within easy sight of the house, preferably from where you spend the most time. Position the cubby house at a slight angle in the yard to give children a feeling of privacy while they play but allow you to keep an eye out in case of any accidents. A partially open front is a great idea; it allows for easy transition between inside/outside play and lets you see what's going on with a quick glance. Imagination is still the best toy. A letterbox is a novel addition and a blackboard is great fun, while a window box looks pretty, plus they'll love watering their own plants.
