This simple idea was completely child created while watching the movie Surf’s Up. When I saw my pillows being used as surfboards, we got out the poster board and crayons and designed our own boards. The children had a blast and I was happy to have fluffy pillows on the couch.
This could be much more advanced using patterns and measurement in the design. But sometimes it is nice just to hang loose and have fun!
