A perfect example of why it’s great to make things from cardboard – my daughter hates shopkins now and wouldn’t touch them!

Not sure I’ve come across shopkins. The name sounds familiar, but don’t think we’ve ever had them

Fantastic idea so these toys keep getting played with

Nice idea, though more for parents than little kids.

Popular Shopkins! I love them. A great creative idea that is not expensive.

This isn’t our thing, but my niece would like this.

get cardboard and make shops, parks, building, and cities

    and the best bit is when the kids have moved on from this phase (which they will), you can just recycle it!

Lots of fun to make and lots of fun to play with later. Thanks for sharing.

Adds a different element of fun.

Smart thinking!

A very cute creative idea,thanks!

I think you could do this for anything your kids are in to as well. We are going to make a Thomas one for my son.

Nice project. No need to spend a fortune on bought play houses when you can make your own. Thank you.

  Exactly! and when they’re finished playing with it you can recycle it. Save the world from plastic!
