This year we joined Lorraine's Secret Santa swap for the first time. It was such fun! My poor neglected babies had written a wish list - and got much more.
Aus dieser super Spiellandschaft werde ich sie nie mehr raus kriegen...
Die ausführliche Bildergeschichte gibt es hier:

und DollMum erläutert wie sie das Teil hergestellt hat in ihrem Blog:

They'll never leave this fabulous play mat...
... the links above lead to the complete picture story, and to DollMum's explanations how she made the amazing play mat and the felt blocks.
Nachdem Marie sich breitschlagen ließ das winzige aber komplett lesbare neue Buch vorzulesen, war das Glück perfekt.
Vielen Dank DollMum! Wir sind total geplättet.
After Marie could be persuaded to read the tiny but completely readable story book to Baby and Mikey, they were as happy as could be.
Thank you so much DollMum! We are thrilled.
This really was THE most incredible present of them all I think - such imagination and the perfect gift for the babies to keep them occupied for hours. So glad you enjoyed the swap.
AntwortenLöschenYes! I hope it will be repeated next year...
LöschenThis is such a lovely gift. It's perfect for your babies, and all the little accessories are adorable!
AntwortenLöschenThe felt blocks are unbelievable! They are hand sewn, and the letters on them are machine stitched. They are so evenly made the babies can really build with them.
LöschenWhat a cool idea, and so beautifully made! Lucky little babies!
AntwortenLöschenThe babies are still crazy for their gift. Now they want to have Christmas each week.
LöschenI'm so glad you and the babies like the new playmat - it wasn't really my idea as I copied the concept from other playmats but had to find a way to make the arches work - lightweight (for posting), flexible and strong. I've made felt blocks before, I would like to make wooden ones sometime as they would stack better.
AntwortenLöschenWe love it, and with your instructions, it was easy to figure out how to set it up. The felt blocks are perfect for babies, so Mikey won't hurt anyone when he decides to throw them around!
LöschenWhat a great gift for the babies, they will have so much fun with it! Dollmum is very clever!

She is. And it's beautifully crafted, too.
