Delivery Box Fun!

The options are never ending of finding things to do and to keep the kids entertained by colouring in the fruit and vegetables on the delivery box.

Here are some more ideas:

• Create a mini vegetable shop with the remainder of the cardboard box.

• Make a Carmon Miranda hat for Easter by making a crown and sticking on all of the colourful fruit.

• Create a colour game by grouping all of the colours. 

• Create a fruit alphabet that can be pinned up on your bedroom wall.

• Create a mini vegetable patch and stick the vegetables into the patch in rows with Velcro dots.
