Art and Creativity

For the past few weeks, I have been collecting empty boxes in order to do some sort of art project with Lucas.  Well last night I had the bright idea that the kids would like to have a castle to play with with their figures.  So today Lucas and I started cutting and taping and coloring and creating.  I think it turned out pretty good.  Lucas worked on his cutting and coloring and then for the most part told me what he wanted on the castle and I created it.  The most fun part was the elevator I made that actually goes up and down.  It has a para-scope, fire posts, windows, a door that opens and closes, a ladder and one platform.  They have played with it for 2.5 hours without stopping and without fighting.  I would say it was a good idea, and I had fun.

Proud of his creation!
