There’s really no end to the imaginative fun in the ordinary objects and junk around the house.
Here’s a commonly found object… OLD CARDBOARD BOXES!
They make a terrific cave or tunnel
A simple car racing track
And even a makeshift slide
So why not toss an old cardboard box to your little one and see what else they come up with.
It might surprise you.
To a child, life really can be this simple.

Our DIY outdoor chalkboardToday’s entry is not so much a post as it is just a way to showcase the latest addition to our outdoor play area… Our new mega sized outdoor chalkboard!
This past week has been all about snails.The children are always fascinated by the snails in our garden and ask endless questions about them.A couple of weeks back, one of my boys stumbled across a snail crawling along the ground.
A couple of weeks ago, I had posted this snapshot of these set of magnetic shapes I made on my Instagram. I received a few curious questions on how I made them.
And so Nathan’s very first day of kindergarten is over. It was a mixture of good, bad, sweet and sour. I think that so much happens throughout the day, it can be challenging for a little person to filter through it all.
These days my days are packed full to the brim. From the moment I wake up to the sound of Grace calling through the baby monitor and Nathan’s cheeky face peering at me over the edge of the bed… to the evening when I finally tuck them into bed and say goodnight.

Toddler imagination is indeed amazing. The slide seems to be a favourite. When we were sunning my daughter's mattress it became her slide as well!
ReplyDeleteYou know... I've sometimes regretted purchasing toys for the kid, because he's just as happy with boxes and regular items that can be found around the house!
ReplyDeleteHe uses my shawls, sarongs, back scratchers, fly smackers and what have yous... and gets entertained for hours!
He's happiest with cardboard boxes, though! ;)
Thanks for linking up!
It's really amazing how they can play with just the simplest of things :)

Oh I agree, the simplest things actually make the best toys! Many times, I find they are more interested in the packaging than the toy itself. Thanks for linking up!
