Homemade Toys

I spotted this sweet and simple balance beam in a "back to basics toys" catalog which came to our mailbox today...and it reminded me so much of the one my dad built for us back in the day. Ours was just like this one...but we colored all over it with crayons. We loved it.

The same catalog also had these stilts. BryGuy used to make these for us as well. If I recall we had a bunch - all different sizes, so that we always had enough for friends to play with too.

If any of you are as handy as BryGuy, these toys can be made at home and will be a big hit under the tree...

If you aren't handy, buy them, or call BryGuy and place your order...they'll still be a big hit.
