Kitchen in a box
På family fun's sida finns massor av bra tips och pyssel man kan göra med och till barn. T ex detta kök av en kartong:

A cardboard box, gussied up as a play sink and stove, will send your toddler into pretend rapture--for real. In fact, the hours of play she'll get out of this sweet kitchen make it well worth an evening of cutting and painting. (For a simpler version, just tape the box closed, cut a hole for the bowl, and call it a sink. She'll still adore it.) Offer plain old rolled oats (which are safe to eat) and pint-size cookware for even more fun. ![image282](https://cdn2.cdnme.se/cdn/8-2/150305/images/2008/0204_123_box_kitchen_1203268067_2332337.jpg)
CRAFT MATERIALS: | |
![]() | Large cardboard box (ours measures 14 by 18 by 26 inches) |
![]() | Tacky glue |
![]() | Additional flat cardboard (cut from a box is fine) |
![]() | Scissors, craft knife, and pencil |
![]() | Metal bowl with 1/2-inch lip |
![]() | White paint, colored craft paint, and brushes (optional) |
![]() | Cord or kitchen twine |
Time needed: Afternoon or Evening |
2. Cut cabinet and oven doors, burners, and a faucet from the flat cardboard.
3. Turn the box on its side so you can lay the cabinet and oven doors on the front of the kitchen. Trace around them, then cut out 3 sides of each rectangle; leave the fourth side uncut to act as a hinge. Glue the freestanding doors on top of the hinged ones for durability.
4. Flip the box over and, on the top side of the kitchen, trace around the bowl's rim. Cut a hole 1 inch smaller than the diameter of that circle.
5. Cut a slot for the faucet. Use a sharp pencil or the craft knife to punch holes for the towel rack and door handles (you may need to work from both sides).
6. Paint the box white, if you like
7. Add the final touches: glue on the burners and faucet; paint on details such as stove knobs, hinges, and hot and cold water handles; lace cord through the holes, then knot it on the ends to make door handles and a towel rack. Finally, position the bowl in the sink hole and hang a dish towel from the rack.

Nu har min son redan fått ett kök från Brio i Julklapp av mormor.

Här kokar han ett ägg med kompis Karin. Men ett flygplan kanske det kan bli när han blir lite äldre.
