Upcycling empty tissue boxes to make little aquariums to add on to their animal families free play activities.
As a mom to multiples, I strongly encourage them to share their toys. However, this depends on the nature or size of the toy, if the size is sufficiently big to ergonomically positioned and shared among three of them (such as the DIY cardboard carpark), I would just make 1 piece, and they would share; if the size is small, I would prefer to make 3.
I usually keep the design simple, because I will be making 3 sets, complicated designs will takes forever to complete. And most of all, the simplicity will give more space develop their creativity and imagination.
Day 1:
I helped them to cut and strengthen the tissue boxes. They will help to glue the corrugated blue paper (as water) and light yellow color paper (as sand) into the respective boxes. Once they had completed the pasting, they were already arranging their little aquatic friends into the new 'home'
Day 2:
I drew out some fishes for them to colour. Then I gave them thread and masking tape to hang up the fishes. They could tape it nicely and independently.
