FROM CARDBOARD TO CREATION

WHAT COULD THIS BOX BECOME?

WHAT COULD THIS BOX BECOME?

With Makedo, an everyday cardboard box becomes the starting point for imaginative, hands-on creation ✨

Children can cut, connect and transform recycled cardboard into vehicles, buildings, creatures and inventions, bringing their ideas to life through open-ended play 🌱

CREATE MORE. WASTE LESS.

CREATE MORE. WASTE LESS.

Makedo encourages children to reuse cardboard and experiment with the materials already around them.

As they build, adjust and rebuild, children explore how different shapes, connections and structures affect the strength and function of their creation 🌟

It is not only about making something, it is about testing ideas and discovering how to make them work better 🌈

THINK LIKE A DESIGNER

THINK LIKE A DESIGNER

Every project introduces children to explore early concepts in structure, fastening, balance and prototyping, the same thinking used by designers and engineers when developing packaging, products and buildings 🏠

Through playful construction, children begin to see how recycled materials can become practical solutions in the real world 🌍

    So much fun!

    Love this! The kids have so much fun with it and it’s such a great way for them to get creative. They love building different things out of cardboard, and it keeps them entertained for ages. Definitely recommend!

    Open ended play

    I bought this for my 7 year old daughter as she’s into crafts and hands-on activities. She thought of making a skeleton as Halloween is approaching. Result in photos!

    Hours and hours and hours of play

    We first came across the world of Makedo 18 months ago and have ever since sung its praise! My husband and I agree it’s ranked in our top 3 purchases we’ve made for our kids (alongside magnetic tiles & the Yoto audiobook player).

    Although the box says 5+, we have given this to our kids from 2 with no issues or injuries.

    We’ve made puppet theatres, cubbies, forts, planes, ramps, cars and rockets. I bought a second set so we can use it more when friends come over to play. I just grab cardboard boxes from Bunnings as we need them or my son goes through our recycling box under the sink.

    Such good imaginative, creative, multi-age, STEM play.
