Recently our almost two year old granddaughter was able to grasp the head of the brad and as she pulled on it, it straightened the "arms" of the brad. I don't know if it would have pulled all the way out but I would not want to take a chance. I would suggest some hot glue, super glue, or thread wraps under/around the arms to prevent that from happening. It is a fun page. I had no idea it would do that. Sorry. And, thanks to Linda K for her comments.Simply, Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09259006995545808789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5906077458546199645.post-52620684782469879362015-08-01T08:33:55.364-07:002015-08-01T08:33:55.364-07:00After struggling with sewing pages together using ...After struggling with sewing pages together using various methods and not being 100% satisfied, I'm going to give your idea(s) a try.

(Of course, it wasn't 105 degrees here, so I bet we didn't appreciate them as much as you did... but still, yum!). I'm excited for when we move up there soon!
