DEVELOPMENT PANEL

Send

Entering a toy store, one's eyes run wide from the diversity and breadth of choice. The price range also fluctuates greatly. However, toys made by oneself are always a priority for a child. No matter how beautiful the factory toy is, the thing created by my mother’s hands is filled with all love and care. Usually, kids feel it at some subconscious level.
The toy that is presented in this workshop cannot be found in any store. However, she enjoys great love and interest among young children.
This board is mainly intended for boys, as it includes all kinds of iron gizmos. However, I made my development panel for my daughter. After she learned to walk, all sockets, switches and doors "live her life." Noticing the interest in such things, I decided to collect everything that causes her wild delight in one place - on the board.
So, what will be needed to create a development panel?
First, of course, the foundation, i.e. a board on which everything will be attached. Everyone can choose its sizes for himself. I picked up the one I found from the old wall. It is varnished on one side.

Secondly, all accessories: hooks, bells, buttons, switches, handles, chains, loops, heck, etc. Having entered the hardware store, you will choose what the eye will fall on. And I advise you to search around the house. Surely you will see something that can be fixed, for example, non-working watches or key rings.

Thirdly, small square planks that will go to small doors.

Fourth, various decorations, stickers and pictures. All in order to make the panel colorful and fun (after all, it’s for children).

So, armed with everything you need, we begin.
1) We glue small boards on self-adhesive colored film. We fasten the heck and hook to them. I asked my husband to do this, since I don’t know how to hold a screwdriver in my hands. Next, I fasten the hinge to the corner of the base and fasten these doors. Now they open and close.

2) I fasten one more latch, a hook, and three handles. On the handles I fix the chains from the old bag, which was a pity to throw out. (But how she came in handy on time). To another pen I attach a chain from a keychain lying around at home. The ring at the end can be strung on a hook.

3) From the same old wall, I found accessories in the barn, which I also attached to the panel (you can press buttons on the side, they click).

4) Separately, I had to tinker with the bell, the cord from the outlet and the plug. The fact is that the cord got too thick, so I had to fix it to glue "super torque". In my opinion, the plug should be plugged into a power outlet.

5) Also on the "super-moment" we stick a button from the bell, switch, and old non-working hours.

6) Having established everything, we pass to the final stage: decoration. Having typed various pictures and cards, we paste them on the board in free places. From the double-sided tape, I cut out the numbers and pasted. Voila, and now the board is getting a lot more fun!
