I love to make DIY toys that keep the kids busy long after the craft is through. I thought this might be a craft we made and displayed for a while, but I was wrong. When we were done creating, my son made that train go choo-choo all throughout the house. He sat in the kitchen making it travel around him for a while. His legs, tables and chairs around the house became tunnels. This was a craft activity and a toy that resonated with my three year old.
It’s time to play. I wonder if your children will have fun making their cardboard train choo-choo all around the house like mine did. Want more transportation activities for kids?
