We’ve been collecting trash lately and keeping it out of the recycle bins. An idea on Pinterest and the fun that is Angry Birds is to blame. Ours may not look like the example I got the idea from, but the girls helped make it and it was a nice, busy activity. Great for a day I didn’t feel like hitting the pool. The fun thing with making your own Angry Birds game is that you can keep adding to it. The kids are planning on saving and painting a few cereal boxes to make it more challenging.
Age wise, one of the 12 year olds helped make it, but didn’t get into playing it. Another 12-year-old wanted nothing to do with it, the ten-year old helped make it and played for a while. The seven-year old is in Angry Bird heaven and so are the neighbors (9 and 5). This promises to be a good go to activity for the weeks to come.
Our game looks like this and already has evidence of well-played fun on it hours later!
Our next plan is to design a Where’s My Water game…help me!
I did something similar last year for PTO Family Game night. I used a whole bunch of boxes and Charlie’s stuffed Angry Birds birds and pigs. I love the idea of painting the cans, boxes and using a bouncy ball.
