Sam,
I got 2 sets of playyard, that means 8 panels. 4 panels can onli do a square, it is like a jail. I am going to use it for time out in future. That is when my gal did something wrong, she will go there to reflect on her mistake. Haha... Actually no lah, just to let her cool off & no play or interaction will be given hence student, oops, my gal will think wat she has done wrong.
Currently I fix 4 panels to let my gal & cousin park their vehicles (bike, bicycle). They love parking games. Also, my cousin enjoys assemble & disassemble them.
6 panels is sufficient to surround the whole of standard playmat unless urs is extra big. We put up 6 panels to let my gal play while my maid is busy or train her to stand up, walk with support & self play. Got once, she play until sian liao, peek through the hole to watch TV. Machiam like prisoner lor. Haha...
8 panels, never use this set-up cause far too big liao. I bought 2 sets of 2nd hand so cant buy onli 6 panels.
Why am I waking up at 5am on a Sunday morning? Why can my biological clock be more flexible? Haizz...
