Castle

My oldest loves playing battle with his Lego “dudes” and army men.  He also likes knights and castles so he asked if we could make a castle.  Mommy found a fun website to make a castle from cereal boxes, toilet paper rolls, and paper.  We printed the parts of the castle on scrap paper, the kids colored them, and then we pasted the paper onto the cereal boxes and cut out the pieces.  I did most of the assembling since it was difficult for the kids to fold the cardboard and to glue the parts in place. Here is the link to the website to make the castle.

Ready to do battle. 



My son decided he needed another castle for the “enemy” troops so we made one out of a juice box container. He also remembered his other box creations and got them out too to use in the battle.





I think DH is planning on getting my son a Lego Castle for Christmas, but in the meantime, he certainly is having plenty of fun with his cardboard box creations.
