DIY Kids' Kitchen from Recycled Materials
My kids are like mud puddle magnets so I raided the recycle bin and made them a kitchen playset. Now I get to sample all the mud pies I want! Check out the directions below.
Supplies Empty plastic containers (such as: milk jugs, sour cream tubs, dish soap bottles, etc.) A cardboard box Duck tape Permanent marker Scissors/craft knife
Directions Wash your containers and remove the labels if possible. To create a mixing bowl simply cut the top off of a gallon jug and place a piece of duct tape over the cut edge so it isn’t sharp. To create the spoon, cut the handle off of another gallon jug, leaving a spoon shape at the bottom. Add tape to the handle, making sure to cover any sharp bits. Decorate your other containers with tape and permanent marker. You might want to label things or mark measurements, use your imagination and have fun. For the oven, cut a flap in the side of a box and doodle on a few knobs. Fill one or two containers with water so that your little one can make mud!
