Mending the treehouse

Verona's treehouse

Verona

This morning Verona is outside doing some repairs to her tree house with Daddy. She has her own tool kit which she is very proud of. It’s ‘real’ child sized tools, not one of these naff kids toys. She has just changed the blade on her saw and they are seeing if they can salvage the tree house as some of her friends want to play in it, but we’ve not been able to let them for safety issues.

It appears much more wood than we thought has gone rotten. The tree house was built when Verona was still in nappies from old scraps. The tin roof was donated by a neighbour. Her interest in the tree house has grown over the past few months. She’s very much into creating her own spaces and dens at the moment, so I think she might have some winter fun in this!

By the time I got outside to see what they were up to, Verona had given up being chief labourer and was getting on with the ‘real’ work of playing, leaving her Dad to it!

Ready, steadY;

GO!!!
