Children Play Castle Craft

How many times have you had this situation happen? Nature calls, so you walk into the bathroom. You sit down, do your... um... business, turn to grab toilet paper and NADA! NOTHING... ZILCH! Nothing but that empty toilet paper roll hanging there just staring at you, with nothing but a few scraps still stuck. I hate those stupid rolls and in this house.... we have this situation happen a lot. I have actually heard myths that if a toilet paper roll actually gets changed in this house, that it is a sign that the four horsemen of the apocalypse are coming.

But have no more hatred for those rolls, for they didn't do anything to you (it was the person before you, that you are mad at), but save those rolls and use them for something good, like a play castle for your kids. All you need is a few things like...

Some toilet paper rolls
A box
Paint
Brushes
Glue

With these few items your kids can sit down and paint/glue/cut themselves a fun castle. They can get into it as much as they want. Make a draw bridge, windows, paint brick by brick, make furniture, even a moat. This will probably only cost a whopping 4 bucks or so. Just enough to buy some paints and sponge brushes. The kids will have their afternoons busy trying to build their castles so then you will have your afternoon free for, um... lets say... blogging? :)
