Kid Gets Secret Treasure Room For 4th Birthday
At ghghghgh, they detail how they turned an unused storage room adjacent to their 4 year old's room from a dusty, unused and unfurnished room into a space so wondrous that their son called it a "secret treasure room".
They hid the door to the storage room behind a kid-size dresser for two years, and when his fourth birthday drew near, the set to re-flooring the room, putting up and painting new walls, and stocking the room with furniture and drawing supplies and stickers and a world map that wouldn't have fit on the wall of his other room.
This is an awesome project, and pretty unique gift to give to a kid-- how many of us have daydreamed of dressers or bookshelves in a home leading to secret rooms? These folks worked together and gave him one. You can read how they did it, complete with pictures, here at Goer.org.
