This is a great activity for mom and child, especially since then the child will be pleased to play with things made by his own hands. Of course, the smaller your child, the more mom will have to do, but even a baby can make a contribution to creating a house for her beloved Barbie and her friends. Create it with your child, giving him the opportunity to do what he can do.
It is necessary
paper, cardboard, fabric, knitting yarn, scotch tape, scissors, boxes, cubes, constructor, various stickers, postcards and magazine clippings
Instructions
Step 1
If in your apartment there is an old grandmother's bookcase or a modern rack, then you are very lucky, because this is an almost finished multi-storey building. You can equip a garage for a beauty's car on the first floor, on the second - an entrance hall, living room and kitchen, on the third - bedrooms and a bathroom.
Step 2
Partitions can simply be made of thick cardboard or plywood (then you will need your dad's help). Cut or draw windows, and hang curtains on them from the rest of the fabric. Pape the walls with wallpaper, it will be beautiful if the walls in the toy house are covered with the same wallpaper as the walls of your girl's room. Have your child draw pictures to hang on the walls of the house.
Step 3
The most important thing in the house is comfort. Of course, such a house can be furnished with purchased furniture, but it is much more interesting to make it yourself. Look around, for sure, in your home there are many unnecessary items from which you can create exclusive furniture. Boxes of different sizes, toy cubes. Make lighting in the house from a New Year's garland. And don't forget about cute things: put a bunch of flowers on the table (these can be bunches of dried flowers), knit rugs, sew bed linen. Decorating a dollhouse for Barbie is an endless flight of fantasy. In the interior, you can constantly add something, rearrange furniture, invent.
Step 4
An older brother or dad can improve the structure. For example, you can build an elevator. Make a cabin out of the box, for this, a juice box is quite suitable. Cut out two walls. Make a block from a spool of thread or some kind of wheel from a broken machine. Screw the screw into the upper shelf after putting the spool on it. Tie one rope to the bottom of the box, and the other from the top, throw it over the spool and tie. If you pull on the rope, the lift will move up and down. Believe me, playing with such a house is much more interesting than with one bought in a store.
