What inspired you to make this project?
I use these Makedo® cardboard construction tools with my grandson's and they love coming up with ideas and helping me construct them with tools their little hands can use easily. They feel so successful and love playing with the things we first imagined and then made ourselves. I think many children can benefit from learning to be makers starting out with tools and cardboard and many families can benefit from making together.
