AdventurerKatziCrafting with packaging material. An empty beverage box (tetrapack) creates a bright house. Cuts out the windows and the door with a cutter knife, glues behind the openings with butterbread paper and paints the house. A small chain of lights inside brings the house to light.
Media Education for Kindergarten and Hort
Relief in everyday life, targeted promotion of individual children, independent learning and - without any pre-knowledge already usable by the youngest!
First, clean the empty beverage box with water and detergent and leave it to dry.
With a cutter knife you then cut windows and doors out of the cardboard box. Paint the squares onto the cardboard and let it help you cut out an adult! The handling of the cutter knife must be practiced!
Tear old newsprint into little snippets.
Now you brush the cardboard with wallpaper paste. Then you stick the snippets on it. Now you brush paste again over the glued-on snippets.
At window and door edges you can flip the snippets inwards. So the edges are rounded. Take your fingers!
If the whole carton (except the bottom) is glued, then place it on a radiator for drying.
It continues as soon as the Tetrapack is completely dried up.
Now you paint the house with white wall paint.
Tip: Fill a few spoons of paint in an empty yoghurt cup, then you can immerse yourself more easily than in a large paint bucket.
Then let the paint dry.
Cut your butterbread paper in size a little smaller than your Tetrapack.
Then roll the butterbread paper loosely together. The roll should be about as long as your house.
Push the roll of butterbread paper through the door into your house.
Shake and place the butterbread paper (through the windows, door or screw opening) so that it unfolds inside the house.
Now the chimney is missing. Cut off a 5cm piece of the cardboard roll. Alternatively, you can roll in a paper and insert it into the screw cap.
Glues this roll into the round opening as a chimney.
Finally, you push a small mini-light chain through the door into your house.
You can also put the battery box in it. If necessary, you have to cut the butterbread paper wall a bit.
Now find a nice place for your house.
For example, on a window sill decorated with tree bark and pine cones.
Or you can decorate it with another chain of lights.
Stay creative!
Have fun trying it out!
