Travel Fun Box
Here's a fun "on-the-go" activity box where your kids can stick all their special travel supplies. Make one for each child so even the little ones have their own creativity laptop.
HERE'S WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
- Plastic shoe-storage box with snap-on lid (a regular cardboard shoebox with lid also works)
- Fabric fastener, such as Velcro
- Small zip style storage bags
- Empty film canisters with lids
- Self-adhesive dry-erase paper or self-adhesive chalkboard paper
- Small child's sock or eraser
- Dry-erase markers or chalk, glue stick, small crayon box, small coloring book, pencils, tape, stickers, pad of paper and scissors
LET'S GET STARTED:
- Attach 1-inch strips of Velcro to the sides of the film canisters, the backsides of the crayon box and chalk box, the glue stick and whatever else you have. Attach 3 short strips or 1 long 3-inch strip to one side of each plastic bag near the opening. Now attach the corresponding Velcro pieces to the inside of the storage box at the exact places where you would like to attach the items. (Reinforce the Velcro with glue if you wish.)
- Fill bags with dry-erase markers, scissors, or stickers. For older children, fill the film canisters with coins for tolls or with bandages for a small first aid kit.
- Attach the dry-erase paper to fit on top of the lid. Place the self-adhesive chalkboard paper on the underside of the lid. After using, wipe off dry-erase writing or chalk marks with the sock.
