Kid's Co-op: Playing With Old Toys in New Ways

My kids love getting new toys, but there's only so much room in the house and budget.  It's great when we can find a new way to play with toys we already have.  Here are four great ideas from last week's Kid's Co-op:



1.  Turn a train table into a zoo safari at Crayon Freckles.
2.  Play Create Explore made some Aquadoodle bath art.
3.  Crayon Freckles had another good one with monster truck bowling.
4.  Little Wonders' Days shared a Lego rescue game.

Two great books for showing how things can be transformed with imagination are Not a Stick and Not a Box.

I've pinned these to the Kid's Co-op Pinterest Board (and you can find a featured button on my buttons page if you'd like one.)

Thanks so much to everybody who linked up last week!  Can't wait to see what you've got this week!

    Oh my goodness. I hope the surgery went well and that you feel better soon. Thank you for hosting, what an amazing hostess you are to be doing it the day after surgery!
