Before you toss those old boxes and cartons in the trash, think twice! You can actually use them to come up with your very own toy car or doll house for your kids.
By Jazer Basan
What you need:
• assorted empty boxes
• clear tape
• glue gun (to be used with adult supervision)
• double-sided tape (can be used as an alternative to glue gun)
• scissors
Procedure:
1. Structure boxes according to the purpose and concept.
2. Consider the size of the doll house and toy cars that will be housed.
3. Cut and tape the boxes together or use glue gun to quickly attach it.
4. You may add matchboxes as furniture for the doll house or popsicle sticks as antennae for the toy car.
