Mike made these cute little houses with the kids out of construction paper! They were simple to put together, and provided a lot of fun, imaginative play!
Mike didn’t use a template, but Valerie of Inner Child Fun has a cute printable to make slightly more elaborate houses out of cardstock. My kids also enjoy turning cereal boxes into cardboard houses – both houses with flat roofs made from cereal boxes and houses with angled roofs from regular cardboard boxes!








Their houses look fun!
