Rocking Chair Fort



Today we made a "rocking chair fort" for the boys (and Spenser). We flipped the rocking chair over and covered it with a blanket. (We used to do this when we were children.)

They had a great time. In fact, they already want to do another one.

I took some towels, folded them in half cut them into 5" widths. (The towel was just about 25" or so from side to side when flat.) Then I cut two 5" pieces of elastic and serged it all together. Two layers of toweling and two elastic strips. That's it. (The finished piece was approximately 4.75" x 12.") Within minutes I had a stack of eight. Slide them on and mop away.
