Hey all.
I was in here a little while back and had asked for advice about what to temporarily house my two boys in while my boyfriend and I were on vacation and they were staying with their Auntie for that time.
I ended up finding one of those kiddie pools from Wal-Mart, (the hard, vintage plastic ones most of us from the 80s/early 90s had as kids) and I think it's going to work out. I just need some suggestions as to how to make it entirely escape-proof. The walls look high enough, but my younger boy Patch is a bit of a rascal and I fear he might try and climb out of it. Any suggestions for what I can do to ensure it's safe enough? I might be able to get some grids and position them outside of the pool, but then again, it's circular and I'm wondering how well that's actually going to pan out. Any ideas?
Also one other question...what sort of table or stand do you think would accomodate a kiddie-sized pool? I don't have a photo of it, I'm afraid, and even eyeballing a size would be hard because circles + circumferences + never took geometry = Stupid Me. Just looking for some more ideas.
Thanks
