Get the Look – Children’s Rooms for all the Family
Here’s a quick riddle for you:
‘I can crawl, I can fly, I have hands but no wings, what am I?’
Give up yet? The answer is (drumroll please) time!
Yes, every parent knows how precious time becomes once you have children, but nothing can quite prepare you for the seemingly limitless amount of categories your time suddenly falls into. For example, you have ‘bedtime’, ‘bathtime’, ‘teatime’, ‘cleaning tea off the wall time’, ‘for the seven thous
andth time please put your shoes on time’… the options really are endless.
This Mother’s Day, we’d like to celebrate two of our favourite types of time that, for us, sum up the unbridled joys of parenthood – ‘storytime’ and ‘playtime.’ Infinitely inventive, storytime and playtime are the birthplace of many a cherished memory, so why not maximise the potential of your bedroom and playroom with our modern styling suggestions? Read on to find out more…
