New playpen

Lougarry · 09-21-2011, 03:15 AM

Someone on HC very helpfully suggested that a child's paddling pool with rigid sides might make a good playpen, so I went out to get one for Dinah.

Here are a few pics of the playpen, Dinah exploring the box it came in, and a disgruntled Bob-Bobs the cat watching playtime from outside!

Many thanks for the idea

Found it, it was Emma

who suggested it. Dinah is very grateful x

Thats a good idea. I did buy a pet play pen, but my two boys are terrible! Escaping is all they are interested in, not the toys. I give up and now let them run around the lounge, they are very goodish. My oldest will climb anything! I found him looking down on me from the DVD cabnet

Oooooo I might have to try this one, George has been uncontainable anywhere but the hall so far!

That looks great! I love the second pic of Dinah in the box, she looks so innocent

Ha ha, innocent she is not! Last night we put one of the boxes a smidge too close to the side of the paddling pool and later realised she had scarpered. Naturally she was under a huge pile of toddler toys so it took quite some time to recapture her without squishing her . . .
