I'm currently reading The Creative Family by Amanda Soule and I absolutely love it. It's all about bringing creativity in to every day family life, in a thrifty sort of way. Now that's a parenting style I can get behind! We really liked the idea of a banging wall (check it out here), and decided we ought to make something like it for E. We went to Goodwill this morning to pick out some things, then came home and did a some painting and building (with free spray paint and scrap lumber) and came up with this:

I'm pretty happy with the end result, and so is E.
