The Secret Hideout
The "secret hideout" has been a huge hit for summer fun. I remember making forts out of chairs and blankets when I was growing up. It was always such fun to bring in all of my stuffed animals and whatever else I could find. I've only taken the secret hideout down a few times to vacuum and uncover missing toys. When the kids come in and find the room clean they whine again for their secret hideout...and they usually get it. :-)
Hmmm....what could be hiding in there?
They love watching movies in there on the portable DVD player. It usually buys me some quiet time...until they start fighting and knocking down blankets.
One of the first nights it was up, Ethan said he wanted to sleep in it. I didn't think it would happen. I laid down with him for a few minutes then got up to shower. I thought he'd last a few minutes then bolt to my room. Nope. He fell asleep all by himself in the secret hideout! I left him in there for a few hours. Then I went to check on him and found him wadded up in a little ball uncovered. He looked really uncomfortable so Mondo moved him to his bed.
