Keep 'Em Busy {Cereal Box Marble Track}

 
What kid doesn't love a good marble track? I know my little guy gets a big kick out of them. This one is really simple; all you need is tape, a cereal box (or two), scissors or a knife, and marbles.

 Check out some of the marble track action:

My little guy just LOVES playing with this marble track!

 Want to make your own? Head over to Made By Joel for the instructions. It's super easy!

    Love this X10! Considering the store-bought marble/car runs are $$$. :) Next week, I will be featuring you at Creative Juice Thursday. I will also add this post in over at The Classroom Creative's upcycled craft section, as it is an ingenious fit...

    Thanks for sharing at Creative Juice, Erin.

    Have a lovely weekend,
    Nicolette
