20 Simple Cardboard Box Activities for Kids

 I have a ton of boxes leftover from the holidays.

While most of them have gone straight into the recycling bin, I’ve kept some of them to create a few fun activities for a cold, winter afternoon.

If you’re like me, I have limited time to set up some of the more elaborate box creations out there, nor do I have any craft confidence to take them on!  I mean seriously, this one from Pure Joy Events Blog is amazing!!

So, I found 20 simple cardboard box activities that are perfect and won’t leave me with hours of prep work.

If you have boxes leftover from the holidays, I highly recommend you and your kids try one of these!  #3 will surely be a hit!
