Thomas, from Scotland, converted his girl’s old playhouse into a beach hut. Let’s take a look at the finished product…

What did you do?

I took my daughter’s old playhouse and decided to give it a make over and turn it into a beach hut for my son.

Everything went to plan apart from the weather. I had to space it out longer than I wanted to.

Do you have any other projects planned?

I haven’t got a clue, we like to see what we can do on a small budget, that makes it more fun.

Tell the Housebound With Kids community a bit about yourself…

Hi, I’m a painter and decorator, this has to be one off my favourite jobs i’ve had to do. I have two kids – one coming up for 16 soon and she’s a handful just now, but she’s got her wee brother to cheer her up, he’s only 1.

How are you finding being housebound so far?

My oldest just misses her friends and this was her year for exams. My youngest, well he’s brilliant – on the go all day and we try to make everyday different and full of fun.

Do you have any tips for other parents?

We have been having fun with YouTube and classic old music videos. Turns out my son loves to dance to classic rock and cheesy pop, only for a little bit while you have a coffee. Then is just running about crazy after them.
