Toss in a Box

Toss in a Box craft

Backyard carnivals are the perfect way to spend a summer day, so let the games begin. Children create their own memories and nurture their creative spirits.

  • 1.

    Find a large box with a lid, such as a copy paper box. In the center of the lid, draw a circle that is quite a bit bigger than the ball you will toss, with Crayola® Markers. Ask an adult to cut out the circle to create a hole.

  • 2.

    Spread newspaper over your work area. Paint the entire box and lid with Crayola Washable Kid's Paint and Paint Brushes. Dry.

  • 3.

    Draw butterflies, tigers, or other designs around the hole and on the rest of the box with markers. Accent your drawings with Crayola Glitter Glue. Dry.

  • 4.

    Toss balls into your box. As your aim improves, move farther away. Keep score if you like. Close adult supervision is necessary.
