moving parts..." and he looks me in the eye and very sincerely says "Mommy. Try." So try I have been. Oh my goodness! This is incredible!! I'm already mentally cataloging all the cardboard around my house (and wishing that today hadn't been recycling today so I could take back that cardboard). Thank you so much! Hi, my name is Mafalda, I'm from Portugal. I'm a huge fan of your blog wich I visit since last year.. When I was little my mum used to put me and my brother and sister playing with crafts. We played hours building stuff with cardboard and glue, dough or clay, paints and everything. I identify myself in your cardboard activities with your daughters and see it as an example of education through crafting. It's also an important lesson about ecology and stimulates imagination and criativity. I also think that most of those activities are really reflected in our lives when we grow up, and that we keep the aptness of building most of our stuff in many ways of life. Thank you so much for sharing, it's so inspirational! :) (I love your sewing tutorials too, and I wish to be like you when I turn myself a mum :) ) *Mafalda Wow, you truly have an amazing creativity talent. I've been racking my brain thinking of how to make my 5 year old granddaughter a pretty wardrobe box out of cardboard for her brand new American girl doll and her clothing. Have you
