Go Green: Makedo

makedo by name, ‘make do’ by nature

I can see myself spending hours playing around with something like this, forget the kids!  Makedo have created some very cool little kits that help you and your children find inspiration in everyday products to create something truly amazing...

I love that it takes a much loved toy, the cardboard box, and inspires you to explore what it can become.  Just find any household recycling (like tins, egg cartons, boxes etc) and let you imagination run wild!

Makedo is a connector system that enables materials including cardboard, plastic and fabric to easily join together to form new objects or structures.

I love that once you are finished you can pull it apart and start again!
