Once your kids have fueled up for the day with cereal, use the empty cereal box to fuel their imaginations. Turn it into a Small Farm World with just a few bits and bobs you probably already have to hand.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Every weekend we leave breakfast out for the kids, so that we can sneak a little lie in. This does mean that we always come down to a kitchen table (and floor!) covered in crumbs and we go through mountains of cereal, as one bowl is never enough for any of them. But it’s still worth it. If your kids haven’t quite reached this age yet, hang in there as your time will come.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Lots of these empty cereal boxes make their way into our “Making Box”. Where they will \u00a0eventually be turned into Robots or Treasure Boxes. And we have recently found another really cool use for them as well, a base for a Small World Play.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n When you create a Small World for your child to play with, you are providing them with the props to escape into a world fueled by their own imagination.\u00a0Watch on as they craft characters and create stories about the items set out in their small world. You can even get involved as well, to help them continue their stories on to the next chapter.<\/p>\n For a more detailed look at what at what Small World Play and the many benefits it offers your child, then you have to check out my friend Ann’s blog Little Worlds Big Adventures <\/a>(she’s a bit of an expert on the subject.)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Supplies<\/strong><\/p>\n This post contains affiliate links for your convenience.<\/em><\/p>\n To create our Small World Farm we used:<\/p>\nCereal Box Small World Farm<\/h2>\n
