Probably our favorite part of this blog is getting to see what you, the readers, have created for your kiddos. From bravely creating your own "dream crib" to enthusiastically fashioning play kitchens out of cardboard boxes or Ikea parts, you have created for us an archive of inspiring projects. It wasn't easy to select just ten from this past year...

We thank you for sending in and sharing these projects, whether they're listed here or not, and look forward to seeing and sharing much more in 2010!
