Our family recently has experienced a major quality-of-life-improvement aboard. T and I had been talking about getting a rug in our "family area" ever since we purchased Ma'alahi. I fell in love with a simple and affordable (think Black Friday deal) rug at Home Depot. We received it as a Christmas gift from my in laws.
After rug... everyone is happy! |
The rug matches the upholstery nicely and has made the kid's play area more warm and comfortable for everyone. M now has an area that he can practice sitting up (and falling down) as well as a space that he can learn to crawl (the floor is far to slippery for him).
I was worried that I would need to keep a vacuum aboard (I even brought one down to the boat from the storage unit). I have found that I can get the rug nice and clean with an aggressive sweep of the broom.
I also explored the option of installing foam puzzle tiles (from a baby supply store). Something to keep in mind if you are researching all options.
I am, however, happy with our decision to go with the rug - I have dreams of entertaining in the (distant) future and would like to have the option to make our main living area look like a living room... not an amusement park.

That is awesome! Can't wait to see you.
