Make the baby play sheet yourself

Making a game sheet yourself is no longer difficult.

First of all, you should choose the shape and of course for the corresponding size. Please remember that less is. Especially if you want to do the bow yourself. Avoid overloading it and prefer to make two different arches if you have too many ideas that you would like to implement.

At this point you will discover a detailed guide with which you build and design your baby toys.

1. The required materials and aids for the game sheet

First of all, consider the necessary handicraft materials for the wooden base frame. For the classic sheet you need:

• 5x wooden rods with a length of 80 cm and a diameter of 22 mm
• 2x 3-way pipe connector as a T-piece (suitable for the diameter of the wooden poles 22 mm)
• 1x sandpaper
• Small screws for the connectors
• 1 battery pipe screwdriver
• 1 drill

2. Ideas for handicrafts

After you have the materials for the basic framework, the handicraft materials for the game elements on the bow are now on the sheet. There are countless and so loving materials to choose from so that you can let your imagination run wild.

Here is a small selection of ideas that you can use if you want to make your baby play sheet yourself:

• 3 leather straps or also thread cords (depending on the favor)
• different motif beads
• Various letter cubes
• 4 half -rings
• 2 bells
• 2 silicone like
• 4 crochet pearls
• 1 fabric star

3. Build the base frame of the baby play arch

Now it is about turning these many great handicrafts into a play sheet. First start building the basic structure from the wooden sticks. To do this, take one of the five wooden bars and drill a hole every 20 cm with the drill. Then take the sandpaper to the hand and carefully smooth the surface.

Pay particular attention to the boreholes that there are no fine wood splinters. As a precaution, you can smooth the other wooden rods with the sandpaper.

Now put the wooden sticks together with the help of the 3-way pipe connectors. If you offer the pipe connectors too much air and scope between metal and wood, just wrap the wooden rod at this point with a little glue paper. Then attach the pipe connectors with small screws.

4. Design the game cords for the baby Spielbogen

Now you can begin to add the cords with the handicraft materials. It is important to do a little imagination when tinkering.

Start with the element, which should later hang at the lower end. Here it is recommended to use different fabrics for the respective ends.

For example, put a bell on the first cord, a fabric star in the second cord and the silicone pipe in the last cord.

You can make the cords yourself by using different thread cords and combining them into a strand.

Subsequently, half -rings with motif beads can be set or also used to use letter cubes. Make sure that the result is as varied as possible. When you have filled the cords, it is only a matter of attaching it to the crossbar.

 

To do this, thread the cord ends from the bottom up. It is important that the game elements do not hang too deep. But they should also not be too high, so that their child can easily reach them with their hands. The cords are now secured with a multiple knot on the game sheet, so that they do not accidentally dissolve.

Complete!

Now put the self -made sheet on the crawling ceiling and let your baby discover the new toy with all your senses. Check regularly whether nothing has loosened on the bow. The force that a small grate can apply should not be underestimated. Of course, you can also provide variety by simply replacing the individual elements every now and then. So they offer the child many exciting opportunities to discover and understand their environment. There are hardly any limits to creativity.
