Cardboard Box TV
In partnership with
Moms Morning Memo
Transform that old cardboard box into your child’s very own TV. They can put on mini-shows, tell stories, or even pretend they’re the news anchor. This is a craft that combines creativity with a lot of fun, and the best part is, you probably already have all the materials you need at home.
Activity of the Day
Cardboard Box TV
💡 Inspiration
Things You'll Need:
A large cardboard box
Scissors or a box cutter
Colored paper or paint
Markers
Glue or tape
Optional: stickers, glitter, and other decorations
Step-by-Step Process:
Start by sealing one end of the box. This will be the front of your TV. The open end should face backward.
Using scissors or a box cutter (grown ups, this part is for you!), cut out a large rectangle in the center of the sealed side to create the TV screen.
Let your kids decorate the box with colored paper, paint, markers, or any other materials you have. Encourage them to get creative!
raw or glue on buttons, dials, and any other features your child might want on their TV.
Once the TV is ready, your kids can become actors, directors, or news anchors. They can create shows, tell stories, or even put on puppet plays from behind the TV screen.
