Parents Give Their Son a Secret Treasure Room for His Fourth Birthday

Secret Treasure Room

Sarah Goer and her husband celebrated their son’s fourth birthday by giving him a secret treasure room, a seven by 12-foot storage space with a steeply pitched roof they had kept hidden since moving into the house two years ago. The couple hid the small door to the room behind a dresser, filled it full of surprises and waited for the right moment to make the big reveal.

At the time it was certainly not fit for the kids to use. And we didn’t figure a 2-year-old needed an extra room, but we agreed it would make an awesome surprise for The Boy at some point. So the dresser was parked in front of the door and The Boy had no idea for over two years!
