CatRat

Craft room

CatRat's craft room is chaos with a purpose. Everything he makes is buildable from a recycling box, which is the whole appeal for parents.

Three things to do in the craft room

  1. Activity 1

    Junk-model dollhouse

    A cereal box, a shoebox and tape. Cut a door, paint each level, and add bottle-cap furniture.

  2. Activity 2

    Glitter jar calm-down bottle

    Warm water, glitter glue and loose glitter in a sealed plastic bottle. Shake it, then watch it settle to reset a wobble.

  3. Activity 3

    Pom-pom cat faces

    Glue felt ears and googly eyes onto craft pom-poms to build the whole Gabby Cat crew.

CatRat questions parents ask

What craft supplies are worth buying?
Chunky glue sticks, safety scissors, card, washi tape and pom-poms cover most of what the craft room inspires.
How do we keep glitter under control?
Craft on a baking tray. It catches everything and the whole mess tips back into the pot afterwards.
