HIDE AND SEEK

My husband turned a tiny crawl space in our house into a ‘kid cave’ – now we can’t get our twins out of there

A MUM has praised her husband for turning an "unsafe crawl space" in their house into a hideaway for their children.

Cami took to Instagram to share a reel showcasing the makeover, as she featured what it looked like before, and wrote over the top: "Me: this is a totally unused, tiny, random and unsafe crawl space. Let’s block it off."

Once her husband had worked his magic though, the space became a perfectly-sized kid cave - full of toys and books.

"Hubby: turns it into an adorable mini human hideaway," she added.

The video showed Cami's youngest two children enjoying their new hideaway.

Cami also wrote in the caption: "Now we can’t get them out of here.

"And when I open the door they shoo me out. It’s their very own space and they love it!"

The video quickly attracted comments from impressed fans, with one writing: "Excellent reading nook!"

"Cool. They'll remember forever!" another added.

While a third wrote: "I made one and call it Kid Cave. For grandchildren."

"Reminds me of my great grandpa's old house," someone else commented.

"He had a closet that had a small empty space at the top, he built more cabinets in it as 'stairs' so us grandkids could crawl up there and then put toys and books up there.

"He passed last year but visiting him was always such a fun and cool experience."

Cami is a mum of five - four girls and one boy - and describes her home as "full house, lots of passion".
