Play yard size

[gibbinator]

I just ordered a 6 panel 18.5sqft play yard to contain ds2. Given that I have a 3yr old as well who generally likes to be part of the action, resulting in me/dh +2kids in the space, should I order the 2 panel extension as well?

I'd wait for the main yard to arrive but it's only on sale for the next couple days so need to make a decision soon.

This is like the one I got www.amazon.ca/North-State-Superyard-Colorplay-Yellow/dp/B006NTY1HK/ref=pd_rhf_eetyp_p_img_3

We used the play yard gets to fence off areas of the living room I didn't want DS to get into, like DD's play area with a billion choking hazards (Playmobil, Barbie shoes, etc.) and our fireplace, not to contain him. He would flip out if I tried to contain him instead of just letting him roam back and forth between the living room and dining room. We used the standard number of gates for that and have them set up across one wall.

Yes order the extension. It's not even that big with the extra 2 panels so you'll definitely need it .

Yeah, definitely get the extension. We have the 8 panel and it's not really gigantic. We had 3 of us in it at times and it doesn't feel so spacious ;-)

yeah, you'll probably want more panels. we had 2 sets of 6 but only had 10 set up as a pin. we still use them block off certain areas.
