Product Information

Plan out your tractor – or just use my plan and start drawing it out on the cardboard. A tractor is super easy to draw as it is all straight lines. Maxwell had a fall fest at his school today which meant dressing up like someone or something on a farm. How about a cowboy or maybe even a cow? Nope. Max made it very clear that a tractor was the only option. At 7pm last night I attempted to craft up a cardboard box tractor costume because the 2 and half year old in our house is the boss and I just do what I’m told. Transform a simple round cake into a show-stopping centerpiece with icing decorations, around the sides, made to look like a field of cornstalks with tiny corn cobs peeking through. Green grass and even a cookie crumble “dirt” pile sit underneath the handcrafted John Deere tractor made from fondant. Make it your own by adding a favorite John Deere tractor or toy to the top instead. In conclusion, making a DIY mini tractor by cardboard can be a fun and exciting project that anyone can do.

For our farm unit this year we needed a tractor prop that had a front engine because one of the “chores” students were encouraged to play was to “fix the tractor.”How cute are these cereal corn stalk treats?! Made using cereal that resembles “corn” and wrap in clear baggies or even cellophane. Create a handle at the bottom and wrap it with green tissue paper and raffia ribbon. It makes a great favor, decoration, or even a treat for kids to enjoy. Use the recyclable parts from a label maker or a receipt tape machine, separate, and secure them with hot glue. I took a long tube from the resource room and attached it through one of the parts’ holes. Headed to Grandma's house? The challenge is to keep the little ones busy during the long drive. We have the perfect solution: a bundle featuring a magnetic game, magnetic puzzle and our bestselling picture book. You'll receive: Growing up my boys loved playing in cardboard boxes. I remember turning one into a train and carriage and they played with it for months. The only downside was the fact that I had a couple of big cardboard boxes in my dining room which inspired me to make sure that this fabulous cardboard box tractor was foldable for storage and longevity. A tractor is a great make if you have more than one child as you can add another box at the rear as a trailer, so they can take turns in driving. If you like this then also take a look at our cardboard box car that folds too.

Step 3: Folding the Cardboard Using the ruler, fold the cardboard pieces along the lines you have sketched out. Fold the sides of the body of the tractor and the front of the tractor to make them stand upright. Then, fold the wheels so that they have a flat surface to attach to the body of the tractor.Cut off the phone car charger part so it only leaves the coiled cord. Glue the ends into two of the engine holes. We also have colored tractor simple crafts for kids who like to proceed to cutting and gluing together. Max and his preschool class had a lot of fun playing in his cardboard box tractor! So much fun, I ended up making him and his class a Polar Express cardboard box train for Christmas!
