Anyone use floor pillows/cushions as climbing / seating for a playspace. Any reccs where to find. I'm always looking at TJs Target etc but wonder if there is another option. We are going to move N into a bigger room in another year but in meantime I'm going to outfit it as another playspace (and get stuff out of our living room) but I want to make it a bit more kid cozy including rug and some floor seating.
J has a lion chair that zips out to a little sleep mat thing (did that even make sense?) It's from Walmart, but I can't find it on their website. It's like a huge stuffed animal lion for the back, and then a 3 inch thick pad that can lay out to about 4 ft, or zip together as a chair. He got it for his birthday, and loves it.
What about a bean bag chair?

Right now we have a few giant (like, bigger than my almost 3 year old) stuffed animals DD2 likes to climb on, and sometimes I give her some pillows and couch cushions, too. I like Ms's idea of a bean bag chair, that could give them a challenge with all the shifting around the filling would do
If you've got a large budget, search "Children's Factory" on Amazon. They have a lot of the padded climbing blocks like you would see in a toddler gym, but they are definitely pricey.

Thanks. Sadly no large budget. I have a monkey chair I bought at Costco so I like the idea of another animal. She may get the knock of anywhere chair at xmas from the ILs so I should probably wait. I'm going to get an area rug and some storage.
We have our old couch and love seat in the playroom. The cushions usually end up on the floor. As beds, trampolines, castles, mountains... If I could buy more couch cushions, I would. We have a carpet and two small bean bag chairs, although they rarely use the chairs.

Do you sew? Or know anyone who you can talk into it?
This looks pretty simple and is really cute
