Leanne, from Hampshire, built a rainbow cottage out of cardboard.  Let’s read on…

What did you do?

Using a box big enough for your child to stand up in tape the longest opening flaps together to make a roof shape the shorter flaps will be cut to size to fill the gaps at either end. Cut windows a a door in the desired sides of the box then paint and add detail

Try to use brown box tape or masking tape we used normal tape which was really hard to paint over.

Tell the Housebound With Kids community a bit about yourself…

My name is Leanne.  I am from hampshire.  I have 2 girls age 7 and 4.

How are you finding being housebound so far?

Not so bad hoping to go back to work soon.

Do you have any tips for other parents?

Make things fun I’ve found children are more likely to want to learn if it is fun.
