Here's another 1 year birthday gift. It's a little car mat that rolls up to take on the go. One side has a little scene and 2 wooden cars held in with elastic so little hands can get them out easily. This little old man that lives down the street from us carves them on his porch. He must have Parkinson's because every time he reaches out his hands are very shaky. It makes me even more amazed at these little creations that I can't help walking away choked up every time. He gives us one every time we walk by and each one is slightly different and it just makes his day and ours!! Last time he gave us these 2 and I immediately thought of this idea for a gift. So glad I finally got around to it and had someone to share it with.
The other side has a race car track. It's made with a chenille fabric and corduroy so it's really nice to touch also.
And the whole thing rolls up into a little bundle. It is about the size of a changing pad so it would fit easily in a diaper bag or big purse. Happy birthday Liam!!
Those are just adorable!!! I can't believe how you can think of these creations, and the story of the man who makes the cars is sweet.
