Eleanor, from Derby, sent in this great idea. Let’s take a look at it…
What did you do?
Turn your old cot into a teepee for your little one. To use as a reading den, or to play with toys.
I used cable ties to keep it all together and make it secure. Added my battery powered lights to the front with cable ties, as the balls were to big to wrap round the bars. Used and old duvet cover to go over the top, as like a tent. Then added matching pillowcases to the pillows. Used the mattress on top of the base for added comfort.
Tell the Housebound With Kids community a bit about yourself…
My name is Eleanor.
I am 25 years old.
I have a little boy 11 months old.
I am from Derbyshire.
How are you finding being housebound so far?
I’ve enjoyed being at home with my little boy. I’ve loved watching him grow and become more and more independent and loved watching him pick things up and achieve his milestones.
Do you have any tips for other parents?
Just enjoy it. They are only young once. They grow so fast. So just enjoy they time you have with them.
