Iris did have a very lovely inflatable ball pool, but it was strongly suspected that Jupiter the cat may have given it a slow puncture with one of his paws, and so the ball pool was no more! But over Christmas, with so many boxes around Laura hit upon the idea of making a new pool, by cutting the front off a shallow box. I then took over, and securely taped all the corner flaps down on the inside of the box, and then going round the outside and cut edges for good measure.

If Andy had been there I know he would have found some of that foam, pipe lagging stuff to go round the top edges too. We then put a soft touch blanket to line the inside and cover the sides and a support pillow to fill one corner and two sides to support Iris ……et voila, a new, improvised ball pool!
