The boys are currently obsessed with coloring and drawing. I’m not complaining since it’s better than them being obsessed with their iPads, right?!
I wanted to order them their very own “play table” from Land of Nod, but of course, I knew my Pops could build it better.
I swear the man can build anything and everything. His talent amazes me on a daily basis.
This table is currently where my 7 year old spends a lot of his time drawing the most precious pictures I ever did see.
I can’t decide if I love the “King of Moms” picture or the drawing of his daddy in the bottom right better. I swear I had no hand in telling him what my t-shirt should say in that picture. I almost peed my pants when he presented it to me.
Apparently he knows who is boss. Ahem.
Hands down, I love his version of CG the best though. I already framed and hung it in the playroom.
We painted the top of the table in chalkboard paint and so far, they only want to draw on it with markers (thank you 3 year old), not chalk.
I ended up ordering the stools and the chair, but I am fairly certain my dad could have built those too. I wish I could remember where I ordered the chairs from, but I am drawing a blank.
They not only like to use the table to draw or color, they use it to play legos, magna tiles, race cars…you name it? They play it on the table.
Now the boys are each asking if Poppy can build them 2 more tables so they can each have their own.
I tried to explain to them that if we have 3 tables in one room, there will be no where to play. They don’t care. They just want more tables. Haha.
Don’t forget to check back Friday for the BOY MOM MADNESS GIVEAWAY!
For more DIY inspiration…
