HOMEMADE FUN. THANK YOU AMAZON!

Ok, so you've just received a massive delivery from Amazon. Precious cargo unpacked and put away. What do you do with the box? What indeed.

This is where you really need to start thinking INSIDE the box. How big is it. What can it hold. What can it pretend to be. Depending on the size of it and the inclinations of your child, it can become a dollhouse, a miniature dinosaur forest (oooh, another project coming up), a wagon ... or maybe, just maybe... a full-size bus? Big enough to get into and drive away?

Here's what my kiddo made, with help from adults of course. What fun it was to make and what fun she had for days after - pretending to be the bus driver, fashioning tickets out of little cards and taking us to imaginary destinations. Pure unadulterated fun. And not a penny spent! (Big tick on environmental friendliness too ;))
