Boxcar Children

We saw this idea online but then my husband sort of made the idea his own...

We had two moving boxes and he made a windshield out of one of the flaps.  Next he cut a door in one, and a "tailgate" in the other, making one a car and one a truck.  We affixed two smaller boxes on the driver's side for their snack trays (like Sonic used to bring!)



Next, we used paper plates for wheels, bottoms of plastic cups and water bottles for headlights and tail lights, and gave them stickers to decorate.  Later we added a steering wheel out of a plate and a brad, so that it turns.  

They enjoyed these all day - and it was great - because it was a rainy one!
