Every few days I find a new way to add different levels to the spaces N plays in. Whether it's scooting a footstool over to make a step onto the toy box, dragging storage tupperwares into a giant platform and covering them with a blanket, filling shipping boxes with books and creating steps in the corner of the guest room, or making a giant multi-leveled play island from all of the above, these small shifts in furniture really add to N's play. He likes to climb on the different levels, stand by them, stack things on them, sit on them, and practice getting on and off them.
As you build climbing installations for your little one, consider his abilities to get off and on alone. If you want to be able to leave him in a room alone for a minute, be sure the steps are small and blankets and pillows abound. At the moment, N is very interested in practicing walking on and off steps, so I have to keep my eye on him when he's up on anything.
