The Ultimate indoor fun…..for a little boy!

Is this the ultimate gift for a little boy???? I believe that it is, but I would love to hear your opinion.

I thought that I would share with you the gift that we gave my grandson for his first birthday.  It was almost a year ago and we were looking for just the right gift for a first birthday, for our first grandson! Well we had all kinds of  ideas, but a play table just kept sticking out in our minds. We had looked at all kinds. Lego tables, train tables,etc. Well we thought that we could build one that was a little more personal. This is what we came up with, a play table  and benches with a removable top. You simply can pull the top right off and it reveals a “little town” underneath.

The “little town” has lots of personal touches that remind our daughter of  the area where she grew up. We included the beach where we used to live about a half hour away, the Goldenrod- a favorite salt water  shoppe at the beach; her favorite ice cream shop- Lone Oak;

a mechanic shop- referring to our sons occupation; a golf course  referring to our other son who had a passion for golf; daddy’s work; farms and construction sites; you know, all of the basics for a little boy to enjoy and for his mom to have a trip down memory lane.
