Are you Familiar with Mr and Mrs Potato Head? Here is a fun felt busy box idea for you to try out: build Mr and Mrs Potato Head from felt scraps!
(Affiliate links included for your convenience.)
Our blue lunch box I used for the Ocean Themed Box and these felt scraps were used:
I have found these free quiet book pages templates which I looked at(it’s a bit too big to use “as is” inside my lunch box)when I made my cut outs. I added some more accessories later on and added some bling here and there.
Get my (hand drawn)templates by clicking on the image below⤵️
PS: Depending on your box size, you may have to resize the template.
Kids can choose if they want to build the Mr or Mrs: swopping and changing parts. So much fun! But don’t be fooled, learning still takes place with this fun box: body awareness is one great skill needed to build Mr & Mrs Potato Head( while using fine motor skills to pick up the small pieces and hand eye coordination to place it on the right spot)!
You could always add more accessories, colours etc to fill the box. This is just to get you inspired;)
