Equipment

  • Kid-friendly scissors
  • Paint, glue or tape
  • Markers, crayons or paint
  • Paper/plastic bowl (red looked pretty cool)
  • Paper/plastic cup
  • White paper

Instructions

  • If your paper/plastic bowl is white, color it red. This will be the top of the mushroom house. Then, cut out small circles of white paper (i.e., the mushroom’s white dots) and glue or paste them to the red side of the bowl.*

  • Turn a paper/plastic cup upside down and cut out a door for the mushroom house.* Decorate the cup with windows, curtains or other features of a house.

  • Tape or glue the bottom side of the cup to the inside of the bowl. Now it's time to play! Create as many mushroom houses as you’d like. Consider creating a whole village and placing lego people or other small toys inside each home.
