You ever have one of those days where you just want to do everything your mom told you not to do? Well that’s exactly what my daughter and I did last week.
On Friday, the scene outside our house looked something like this…

Needless to say, our little two year old was getting antsy and this mom was needing something else to do besides play doll house…one…more…time. The result? We turned this…
Otherwise known as our dining room |
Into this…
An Obstacle Course! |
Why we have an ab bench in our dining room is a total other story but it made for a great slide and the perfect ending to a fun indoor obstacle course. I know…I know…how could I allow my daughter to climb on the furniture? Well, have you ever tried it when the challenge was climb chairs while staying on your knees? So much fun. Either way you look at it, we had a blast and my daughter also developed some much needed balance skills. Win-win.
Now, when it comes to another rainy day, I have a good guess what my daugher will be asking me, “Mom, can we make an obstacle course today?”
