Inside Igloo

What is that you see behind the head of our youngest child? Can you tell? That's right....it's the tops of many many many milk jugs. This is what our very creative pre-school teacher has been building with the kids at school. An indoor, milk jug igloo.


The first time we saw one of these was when our middle child was at this same preschool with this same creative teacher. We are just as impressed this time around as we were last time around. They use this as a "reading retreat" and I am almost inspired enough to want to build one at home to read in (not quite - just almost)


As you can see, it's big enough for more than one child or child and adult. What a great little hide-a-way for reading a good book. Or so moms and the teachers think. It's not quite done - but there was another good pile of jugs to use after todays classes.

Now - some of our friends might think this would make a great ice fishing hut. Jeremy - no stealing from the preschool - ok!!! Not to mention I hear the ice is a little thin -right Josh?
