I had too many toys
As my son’s 2nd birthday was approaching, I was excited about throwing a fun party … however, I wasn’t looking forward to the wave of gifts crashing on my home front. Gifts for kids birthdays are this weird social norm that doesn’t always work well .. gifts take up a lot of space, use up valuable environmental resources (plastic, batteries, etc), force guests to spend time and money choosing something … and for what? My son had plenty of stuff already. But .. the one thing we could always use more of were books!
So … I created a book registry for him and Bookshelf Builder was born!
