now that summer has gone, so has the heat and the bugs (don't get me wrong, i did enjoy the warm summer evenings, but those bugs, they were just TERRIBLE). we play in our backyard just about every day (unless we're in the front, ha) and i have noticed that our kids lack backyard toys, but really didn't want to clutter the space with bright colored plastic objects either, so my mind has been racing to find a compromise. one morning while doing the dishes i was looking out at our garden shed, and a light went off....and that's all it took! what was once a garden shed for one family, is now a super awesome playhouse for another!
the kids drew all over the outside of it, and we cleaned it all out and put down some mats on the floor. it's pretty bare bones, but with a little more love, and lot of imagination, this could be something amazing (restaurant, nursery, castle, science laboratory, and today an art studio, or as ryder says "arte", that's spanish, ha ha).
i think ryder made like 25 pictures today, he found this space to be very creative:) they were both in here several time throughout the day, and it simply made me smile. i love when a good idea comes together!
