Booster Seat

Our ward had a Super Saturday this past weekend and one of the projects we did were booster seats made from buckets. They were so easy. Partly because we only had the put them together. They were already cut out and ready to go so it didn't take much time. Parker loves his. We had an old one from when I was a kid that Parker has been using. Well my mom showed them the the enrichment leader and they decided that they would be fun to make. So I decided to make a couple for my kids and then we would have a spare for when a friend comes over. I let Parker choose the fabric he wanted, Thomas the Train, and then I tried to get him to change his mind. You can see who won that battle. Now I have to live with Thomas the Train for as long as we have the bucket seat. I did get to pick out Paige's and chose a pink animal print. They both turned out really cute. You take an empty bucket, cut out the front part (I don't know the exact measurments, but I can get them if anyone is interested). Line the inside with empty pop cans-not crushed, and newspaper. Then you take a piece of wood cut out into a circle cover it with batting, then fabric, and then clear vinyl and staple. Insert the round disc into the bucket and put a few nails in to secure it. They were like I said fairly easy and inexpensive. Parker carries his around to where he wants it and then sits.
Well we are going to Ross Park again today with a friend and I have to get some things done around the house before we go.!!
