So for our bathroom we decided to go with a full tile shower. We went with a natural stone and cut them into the smaller tiles we wanted. We had a really nice design that Eric and I came up with and for the shoer we went ahead and used the tile for the trim.
Sometimes the boys offer to help and sometimes Eric looks at it as an opportunity to show them a new skill or how challenging things can be. The boys were actually interested in trying out the how the tiling worked so one evening he had the boys in with him.
Sup helped a little bit in the shower and Thomas was put to work putting on the trim on the outside of the trim. Sup needed a little more help putting the mud on but he had fun and was able to put the tiles where they needed to go in the shower.
Thomas was a little more independent after Eric showed him how to do put the mud on and line up the tiles on the outer part of the shower. Eric even gave him the spacers and was able to to all the side that he was able to reach.
He did a really nice job and could tell that he world really hard on making sure the tiles were straight and lined up. It was fun to see how he was taking pride in a job well done ; )
