Summer Birthday Bash! Creativity for Kids Recycled Cardboard Doll House Review & Giveaway



Art is a big part of my family's lives. We all play instruments, we like write stories, and we love to draw, paint and craft. Any one with artistic ingenuity who has children, knows to shop at Creativity For Kids. They have some of the most original and exciting crafts for children at prices that won't put a cramp in your artistic style.  They have dozens of options that will appeal to boys and girls of all ages.






For our review, we received the Recycled Cardboard Doll House. This is a wonderful green product that really encourages a child's imagination. It comes with the dolls and furniture that  can be colored and designed as well as the house itself. In addition, they give you tons of creative ideas to make additional pieces out of things like egg cartons. My daughter is having a ball creating each room. Its a fun and less expensive alternative to traditional doll houses. And when she outgrows it, it can be recycled again so there is no waste involved.





All the Creativity For Kids products are available online, but you can also check for a location near you that sells them.  For more grown up art products, check out Faber Castell where you can find paint and brushes, colored pencils, canvases, charcoal and more. They are also a great place to stock up on all your art supplies for the new school year.







And now for the giveaway! One lucky winner is going to receive the same Recycled Dollhouse that we received to review.
