Ever since Trev turned two and a half he has been really easy to take care of. In part this is because he has become able to play on his own. This is a wonderful development but it does leave a mom a bit perplexed as to how to connect with the little guy. I suppose I could play Tonka Trucks with him, but that is just not my scene. My strategy therefore is to take him places that he is interested in and make toys that he (hopefully) likes. Since he showed some interest in spacial arrangement of houses as well as in the process of building houses, I decided that we should make a house model that takes this into consideration.

So, this is what we got so far: A diaper box with “insulation”.

I am about to start making the roof. Trev was really excited about the windows so we made some provisional ones. We will cut them out properly later
