Make your own rocket ship!
With the news of an extended lockdown, the immense pressure on parents to LittleHumans to: teach geography, police screen time and be a loving parent - all between zoom meetings, continues. Fortunately, all humans - Little and Tall, learn through play. Few things excite children more than the humble empty cardboard box and unused water bottle. To children - and hopefully some adults, the cardboard box is not just a product lockbox. The humble cardboard box is much more, it is a pirate ship-icecream factory on Monday and a space den on Tuesday, - obviously!
Creating and playing with unused daily objects in lieu of toys takes children on thrilling adventures; allowing LittleHumans’ imaginations to develop. This is great news for two reasons: 1. It is a form of unstructured play 2. Makes for efficient upcycling.
To celebrate International Space Day, we wanted to encourage LittleHumans to explore the great unknowns & possibilities of life beyond planet Earth through some crafty upcycling.
