Jafta has acquired quite the collection of costumes in the last year, and dressing up as a knight/superhero/spiderman/fireman is his favorite thing to do. I used to store his costumes in a big box on a ledge over his closet, so he had to ask me to get a costume down. The other day, he came strolling out of his room dressed as spiderman, and I was wondering how he got access to the box. This is what I found:
A chair set on top of a toy chest, with his drumset stool balanced on top. Creative? Yes. A great way to fall and break his kneck? Oh yes.
The costumes are now stored in a toybox within easy reach. ER trip averted . . . for now.
I can't tell you how many accidents we've had on that Ikea kids furniture. It slides so easily! We now have a strict rule about bottoms- not feet- being the only thing belonging on that stuff!
Holy Cannoli! I'm gasping from here.
