We all know children like to play with the box once they have taken the gift out, so rather than just throwing that cardboard box out keep it and use it to build some really fun things.
So get creative with your children and start making things with your cardboard boxes using anything from large boxes to small ones and to get your creative minds working grab some great inspiration from this blog.
Here are some patterns for boxes. Can you imagine how they would look folded up?Now test your theory. Make enlarged copies of these patterns on your photocopier, cut them out, and fold them into boxes. Use glue or tape to hold the tabs in place.
Have fun!
