Our New Underwater Toy Box!

 The sandpit toys had a new box to live in, so we got the old box in Moana to store our dress ups and cushions in. 

It was an ugly, light green box, so we changed it!


After giving the box a clean, we painted the outside of it to look like the sea. We used sponges and acrylic paint.

Last week, we had made some fish for a library display. We had made two fish each, so the left-over fish were saved for this box. 

But there is more than just fish underwater! We also made seaweed and bubbles.

It was time then to glue these carefully onto the toy box. We used PVA glue.

To keep things shiny, we painted over everything with PVA glue afterwards.

Now our box holds our toys and looks AMAZING! Do you like it?
