Do you do like to do crafty art projects with your babes? Do you like to travel? Here’s a win-win idea for DIY toys you can use at home or away.
If your kiddo is obsessed with dramatic play time like mine, you will love this DIY pretend city idea I spotted on Kids Activities Blog. Since you really can’t fit a dollhouse into a suitcase, this is the next best thing.
With just paper bags, old newspapers, paint, markers, stickers and a stapler, your little architects can create towns big or small. You can make them in advance and stuff them when you get to your destination or you can use your travel surroundings for inspiration. Imagine a skyline, a beach village, or a small town. So cute.
Bring along some super heroes and princesses, Little People, My Little Pony toys or Barbie dolls and you’re good to go.
What are your favorite toys for traveling?

This is a fantastic idea! We often paint boxes in our home – we need to move onto paper bags!

Can’t wait for my girls to be big enough to do this!
