Cardboard Boxes – There are so many fun things that my preschoolers and I can do with them! They among my kids favorite “toys”. Rachele from Tinkerlab, in honor of her 1-year blogging birthday, is having a round-up of activities you can do with cardboard boxes. Fun! We had fun “throwing paint” onto our box with a makeshift pendulum.

How to have fun playing and decorating a cardboard box?
We used paint, yarn, a clothespin, diaper wipes, a cardboard box and some willing kiddos to help the paint fly..

Oh this looks fabulously fun!!!! Great for the warmer weather heading our way!! Love it!!

I need to pick up some paints! My little dude is 2 1/2 and we haven’t ventured into painting territory yet. : )
What a colourful and happy mess! And the photos are lovely. Poor thing, your little 2 year old – she must have felt overwhelmed. But, a few months down the line, she’l give you good competition at throwing the wipes! haha..
Throwing paint is always fun. I’m starting to wonder whether any of us actually ever do any painting with paint 🙂
What gorgeous photos! Throwing paint-filled wipes would make my daughter laugh — we’ll have to try it this summer. Thanks for joining the collaboration!
I love this! I can so see Selena doing this in our back yard, once it stops raining of course.
What a fun mess!!! This is a perfect summer project. . .can’t wait to try it out.
Wow, this looks like so much fun!!!
This is awesome:)
How fun!! Love the idea of throwing wipes dipped in paint:) We did some messy art too….
