The barn

Cole and I did a farm unit for our homeschool and I realized we had no play barn. At first I though I might build one out of wood but all my attempts of woodworking in the past have been big failures.  So taking inspiration from www.ikatbag.com I figured I'd build one out of  a cardboard box! It just so happened I had a perfect box for it and inspiration struck as we tried to figure out how to make it look like a barn. Why red duct tape of course! A perfect medium for a 6 year-old. Then we used sticky foam for the trim. It turned out really cute. The baby likes it more than Cole but he doesn't  like much if it isn't a video game. We've also make some cute animals to go with that I'll have to share in a later post.
