Tales corner in the nursery.

I do not like carrying the typical candy bags for the classmates on birthdays; in return, I bring a gift for the class. The other day David´s smiling teacher, Jessica, encouraged us to bring a cushion to make a cozy corner of stories. So I decided that this year's gift would be that.

It consists on ten cushions and a bench. The cover cushions are removable, with a beautiful button and a loop of cord on each side which serves for kids transporting and keep them stacked on the sidewalk. The bench has a pocket to surprise the kids with ... "the story of the day.”

One day, Dani said, "Dad works but what do you do?" I said, "I work downstairs in my studio." To which Daniel replied, "No mom, you work collecting pillows. The idea of keeping the cushions stacked appeared from my pain at that answer. I imagined poor Jessi in a terrible cushion battle at Sunshine Daycare in Toy Story 3.
