The Busy Board

Noah is a button pusher. He loves light switches and shiny things and he will go out of his way to touch something that looks mechanical. When I saw this 'busy board' concept on Pinterest I knew Noah would love it. After a (not so quick) trip browsing through the aisles of Lowe's and a visit to Papa Ray's garage for scrap wood, Papa was able to put together a very unique toy just for Noah. It has two light switches, two hinges that open and close, a screw with nuts that Noah loves to twist left and right, two spinners, a combination lock and a door stop for sound effects. :) It also has plenty of room for future gizmos and gadgets to be added as we find them.



He really likes it, every time I pull it out for him to play with he makes lots of oohs and ahhs and will play with it for a good chunk of time before I put it away. Then he goes back to his cars that go "brrrrrrrmmmm" :)
