Kapla (blocks) are cool

Sabine wanted to make a tower using all 1,000 Kapla blocks (thanks Granny Jean and Boopy!). She got some ideas from the books sent by Grandmother Joan and we went to town. (The platform on the floor is our future giant coffee table, it's a kitchen table we bought on Craigslist for $25, Bret's going to saw the legs down, so they're off right now. Thanks for the idea, Kat!)









Knocking it down was almost as fun as building it.

Wowee that is a lot of blocks! Has anyone ever tried making a domino train with them? Your household looks gloriously bustling and wonderful. Thanks so much for your comments over our way, the offer of a guest room and entertainment stands for Madison too!

Domino train...I like it! Will have to try soon. Thanks for the offer -- Madison was on our "short list" of cool looking places for moving, but have never been there...will keep it in mind!

Archer's eyes almost popped out of his head when he saw all those blocks. Good times!

That coffee table will be pretty great too. Go craigslist!

Carolyn said...

We'll have to pull them out the next time you all are over! And yes, Craigslist rules.
