My sister, Carley, turned 30 just the other day. After her surprise party I planned HERE Carley and her hubby took a weeks holiday kid free as a special birthday treat so my gorgeous parents babysat Carley's 3 kids. This mini holiday had been booked in for some time and with a whole week of being around Mum & Dad decided they would build Carley's kids a cubby house while they were babysitting.
In the early stages of designing the cubby house mum decided it would be a 'Shop' so we have been collecting old food containers to stock the shelves
Dad made a 'checkout' bench inside the cubby & Mum found a wooden toy cash register & mini trolley on ebay for a bargain
They even had a shop sign made to hang above the door way
I made some oilcloth bunting to match the signage colours to hang around the front of the roof
And Dad made a pretend petrol bowser with a real petrol nozzle he found (I think the petrol bowser is my nephews favorite bit!
There is hours, days, weeks, months - YEARS of fun to be had in this new cubby!!.... I have put in an order for one at our house now :)
