Cardboard House

This is architecture, interior design, and imaginative play rolled into one messy, glorious project. Your child designs and builds a cardboard house from scratch - complete with rooms, furniture, windows, a roof, and whatever details make it theirs.

They'll problem-solve structural challenges (how do you make a roof stay on?), think spatially (where should the door go?), and design for tiny inhabitants (dolls, mini figures, cars, whatever lives in their imagination).

They take home a finished house that actually works for play, plus the satisfaction of building something complex from raw materials. Bonus: they'll see cardboard boxes differently forever.
