Fun activity with the kids

A while ago, my hairdresser recommended a web site where you can purchase cardboard toys for kids.  I ordered a white igloo which arrived around Thanksgiving time and the kids had a great time living in it for a few weeks.  It's incredibly spacious inside and 3 or more children could sleep in there quite happily.   We took it down before Christmas to make room for a tree and we sort of forgot about it.  Last week, Ruthie decided it was time to get the igloo out again.  A few of us (Julie, mainly) put the igloo together, whilst I ran around gathering pots of paint, glitter glue, brushes, magic markers  and empty egg cartons etc.  We let the kids loose and they had a terrific time painting the igloo inside and out.  Our resident artis for the day  Poppy- did some amazing drawings and the little ones, Lucia and Ana covered each other in green paint.  It was a brilliant way to spend an afternoon and I can't recommend it enough.  The site is called www.cardboardtoys.com.  They do lots of different shapes and sizes and when you've finished with it, you can simply put it in the recycling bin.
