This week in school, we are reading Katy and the Big Snow and learning all about how a city runs. I found this idea on Pinterest months ago and thought it would be fun to do with boys.
OH. MY. WORD. I truly underestimated the awesomeness of this little project. If I hadn’t run out of painter’s tape, we would have had our roads spanning the entire kitchen floor. The boys have played happily all week and it has been a life-saver when I’m trying to bake something or get dinner on the table!
This is a great idea for rainy days, winter days, even I’m-dying-for-a-break-from-these-kids days. I did the majority of the taping, but I’m sure a child slightly older than my oldest can be left free to his own imagination.
P.S. My husband thinks I would make a fine urban city planner. Please take note of my amazing parking lot. 🙂
