It's pouring rain, and your toddler approaches with the sidewalk chalk that he has ignored all summer long. No need to despair!

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • A large cardboard box

Step1
Cut the box or tear it so that it lays flat.
Step2
If you really want to protect your flooring, lay the cardboard box down on top of a bed sheet.
Step3
Tell your toddler that they can color on the cardboard sidewalk.
Step4
Take pictures or even save their art for later!

Tips & Warnings

  • In some cases, you can wipe the cardboard clean and start again!

on 1/5/2008 This is a wonderful idea. I have to hide the chalk in the winter because the walls would get it. Maybe I could cover my walls with cardboard until they are 18.

on 4/10/2008 Good idea - I had never thought of this one!!! Also good for people that don't have a driveway or sidewalk to draw on.
