A spaceship? A pair of butterfly wings or even a dinosaur? Anything’s possible with cardboard!

Unleash your family's imagination and enjoy endless hours of creative fun with the wonderful craft projects that all start with the humble cardboard box. Adventures in Cardboard features 16 upcycled craft projects for the entire family to create and play!

In a world of finite resources and growing consumption, we want to encourage the creative use of simple, recycled materials, like the humble cardboard box, to create play. Encouraging our little ones to re-purpose what they already have is not only great for our planet, it also requires creative thinking to see new possibilities beyond the original purpose, helping our children become the resourceful inventors of the future.
