Homemade Cars!

I have been wanting to make these "cars" with the kids for a while now. I had mentioned it to Leah, which was a mistake since she doesn't forget anything any more, so today we finally did it. The cars are made from filing cardboard boxes, we made the tires out of the lid of the box, and the stirring wheel is a plastic plate. We painted them and added lights with card stock. Over all very easy, fast and fun. I really enjoy doing crafty "projects" with the kids and for now Leah really enjoys it as well. Mylo is getting around to enjoying it but is not very patient. The bad part about doing crafty projects with three kids... one is always crying, in this case poor Milli was very sad... so we rushed through it. It was still fun to create something out of things we already had at home.
