STOP! Don't throw out those empty cereal boxes! You can use them for craft fun or cool gift ideas.

CEREAL BOX CRAFTS

WHAT WE NEED

empty cereal box
kid-safe scissors
hole puncher
yarn (any color)
crayons
cup or other (small - medium sized) round object
non toxic glue

(Kids, make sure an adult is lending a hand before beginning any project.)

1) Doorknob Sign:
Using your cereal box and kid safe scissors, cut out a 4" X 8" rectangle or try cutting any good-sized rectangular shapes of your own. Next, in the center, about 1/2 inch from top, trace the bottom of a cup or other round object. Cut out the circle, color the backside, and write a silly message like "Keep Out" or "Brain At Work." 

2) Bookmark:
Using your cereal box and kid-safe scissors cut out a 3" X 6" rectangle shape. Near the top, in the center, punch a hole with your hole-puncher. Loop 3 strands of yarn through the punched hole and tie a knot. Decorate backside with crayons and use it for your favorite books or give as a gift!
