Kid craft: cereal box wallet

by Angie Felton (Subscribe to Angie Felton's posts) Apr 29th 2008 2:24PM

Anyone can have a lemonade stand, but with very few materials (half of which are available right now the recycle bin) your child can create their own wallet/business card empire and TAKE OVER THE WORLD!

Or maybe just have some fun and make something to give their friends. Whatever.

RePlayGround has a template and simple instructions on how to create a wallet out of paperboard (cereal boxes)and a hunk of elastic. Smaller children could trace the pattern and help with the folds while the older crowd could make the whole fandangled thing themselves.

I love crafts that are super cheap and like them even more if they reuse items we already have and for those reasons alone, this project looks like a winner!
