I came across this great challenge, and had to get busy crafting.  JDaniel4’s Mom and The Activity Mom put together this super fun project.  The challenge is to take a tissue paper box and get creative.  I decided to make a car wash for Big M.

what you need: tissue box (a small one) ~ markers ~ toilet paper roll ~ construction paper ~ glue gun

This post is a part of the EARTH DAY lesson plan.

If you love this, make sure to stop by the Tissue Box Challenge. . .there are a lot of creative ideas for reusing tissue boxes!

      It was so easy to make. I’m thinking of adding a Garbage Dump and Construction site…you know the important stuff.

    Oh cute! I love this idea. I hope the cost of gas there is cheaper than ours here 😉

      ooooh! I didn’t even think of that. I wonder if mine will be free…since I’m the Mom!

      Thank you, Big M is really into details. He loves homemade stuff, it is really fun to put a little something extra into it for him.
