Boys enjoy building things, and they like small spaces. Since they really don’t have access to tools and raw materials yet, imagination and improvisation are required to engineer a toddler retreat. Trey Davey has recently begun adapting pillows and covers for his own personal hideout. Very carefully, he stacks the pillows and covers on the couch to create a makeshift tent. When he crawls into his dwelling he sometimes takes his toys or books with him. Then pleased with his accomplishment he will read aloud or sing in his refuge. When we act as if we can’t find him, he delights in jumping out and surprising us with his presents. It’s good to be the king in your castle.
