I think appliance stores should advertise that with every
washer, dryer, freezer, fridge that you can a free play house. Maybe that will help pick up sales. Maybe that
will get little kids to start begging their parents, “can we please please
please get a new fridge?!!”
Well we got a new washer and dryer and we had a lot of fun
transforming it into a playhouse for Natallie. It was a really fun family
project for the evening. Simon cut out a door with a little handle. We cut out
a window. Natallie loved it right away, she got inside and wouldn't come out. She cried when I dragged her out of the house to eat supper.

Then after supper we got more creative and all the home reno shows we've been watching kicked in and we added pink curtains! Natallie loves to open the curtains and play peekaboo. Simon even made a little window sill where
Natallie can put her little teacups on. Simon even attached the light from a
headlamp so there is a little lamp in her house!
We put her little chair inside and I decorated it with lots
of plastic flowers (that Natallie loves to pull out and then say, “ohhhh!” as
if it was any mystery which little munchkin plucked out the flowers!

The playhouse is indeed pretty! You & Simon are very creative. Now, install a door bell and ring it when you need to ask Natallie to come out for supper.
ReplyDeleteI love Natallie's cardboard house, especially with the curtains and flowers! Alexa's new favorite thing now is a shoebox that we were using to put her stuffed animals in. She takes them all out and climbs in herself, wanting us to tow her around the room in it! She barely fits and it's ripping in places, but it keeps her entertained!
ReplyDeleteThis just looks like way too much fun, wish I was there.
ReplyDeletewould she appreciate a fire truck? it's a great shape for it! or one of those british red telephone booths! :)
ReplyDeleteIt was so lovely to be invited into Natallie's house when I visited in January. :)
