No really, that’s what I’m titling it.
This is nominally inspired by “Playful Learning” which I’ve been enjoying reading to review.
I’ll start with this:
This is a treasure box. you can tell because of the treasure trove of swords.
Now, all you need to do is take out the swords and you have:
A train. All that is needed is a steering wheel, which Batman is quite happily adding.
This is also a train. In case you were wondering. Superman and Batman took the boxes from their party and finagled them into these contraptions. This is the train for their “kiddos.”
I have no clue where they picked that term up, no honest I don’t. I would never call my kids that. Or at least not more than 200 times a day. It’s a great way to grab the random kid who is walking by and you can’t see for sure who it is.
Yes, sometimes, okay quite often, learning in my house is spontaneous and totally unrelated to what we’re officially studying…….
Can totally relate to this post! I love the “kiddos”.
Oh yes- “kiddos”- my favorite word! :0)
We do LOTS of spontaneous and creative learning in our house too!!
I prefer the term “monkeys” – it suits mine 🙂 And, we looooooooove boxes, too. If only they didn't make the living room look like a storage warehouse after a freak wind storm!
Well, ours is still an official “Mouse” or simply “Little One”. It's a big jump from “Tiny One”. I think open-ended creations are the best!
Boxes are soo much fun.
Cardboard boxes are the best! I love that they also made a train for their kiddos – and that they call their stuffed animals kiddos!
My kids immediately grab any box that comes into the house and start transforming it into something else.
