Mollie and her husband teamed up to create a hanging activity board for their toddler son using materials from the hardware store and toys they already had at home.
It has elements of a busy board (hooks and latches) combined with a large metal sheet for playing with magnets. Most of the magnets are wood puzzle pieces that Mollie attached magnets to.
For more details on how it was made and tips for making your own, visit Mollie D.

magnets + kids = not such a good idea. While most of the concern is about "high powered" magnets, why take the risk? http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml12/12037.html
This is an adorable idea & I love the hardware/activities, too.
Love the latches and hardware -- my son would have adored this! honestly, even at 4, he'd still be totally into the latches... :)
