Settee to Train in 60 seconds

How to turn your settee into a "Mr Maker Train" in less than 60 seconds, and get your kid to create their own control panel. My panel became the engine room whilst my daughters was the drivers control panel. Choo Choo! Adding my control panel to engine room of the train Mia at the control panel. This is Mia's control panel - made it all by herself.  Also added some moving bars to so the speed could be changed from 0 to 5 miles per hour. Could also have added dials to move around. A great way to learn numbers and drawing new things.

Yakult Happy People

Turn a Yakult tub into a happy person. Turn the pot upside down, draw a person then cut some hair out and add with glue or sticky tape. Voila - a little yakult person. You can add Christmas tree lights to light them up or add small magnets underneath to move them around a table with an additional magnet under the table. Could be a first to knock the other one over game? Enjoy! Start with Yakult pot and some paper hair. Draw on features and add hair! Wow! From the front.
