Great imagination! Lego table is perfect. I would paint it white so the Lego pieces stand out, and possibly add a 1″ x 1″ trim piece on the table top sides and back to hem in those pesky pieces that always try to run away.

My Grandestson needs a table like this – I would make one end a busy board – he loves the one is PaPa made him for Christmas. He is always twisting the locks, turning on and off the switches and playing with the caster wheels all mounted to the sides of a dry erase/chalk board. then I would paint a “road” on the other half for cars and then all the drawers can be used for the cars and action figures (little people at this age) and balls that little boys want to play with. I think its a fabulous table!!

Thanks for the strike of lightening. Now I can show my Hunny Bunny what I see. He’s pretty handy.

Wonderful idea! I read some of the comments above, but as a former daycare owner, I like painting the top with chalkboard paint so the kids, or parents, could use it any way they want. You can get large lego plates, but they don’t need to be screwed down. They could draw roads, train tracks, houses for toy cars. It could be used as an art table with a big roll of paper on the end…I say find a buyer and customize it for them!

My 2 year old grandson, his baby brother, and parents are living with me so I must vote for a lego or train table. I love the idea of being able to store legos or Thomas the train engine away out of sight! How clever and talented at repurposing you are! By the way, having taught school for over 35 years, I have never understood how anyone in their right mind could be thrilled over the idea of blackboard paint. There is nothing like a steady diet of chalk dust to dull the thrill.

I have a suggestion for the bench…cartoon characters. I’m not sure you can still find it but I have some scrap fabric of Scooby Doo. My grandkids love Scooby Doo so for me that would work. But I do know JoAnn’s has character fabrics for Disney and SpongeBob. As for the table, a craft table for kids is an idea. the crafting tools, markers, crayons, and such, can be stored in the drawers with paper and coloring books.

It is so fun to see what you come up with Gail!!! So very awesome and inspiring! I just read all the comments, there were a million! I think it would be so cute with any of the ideas, but it seems Lego table is the most popular, I know that is what my boys need! You are right the drawers could totally be made into lego pieces, which would be super fun! Can’t wait to see what you do! Hugs!
