A cardboard box (shoe boxes, amazon boxes, small boxes, etc) is the perfect thing to use to help kids think flexibly, be creative, and set the groundwork for problem solving.

A book I love to read to spark a child’s creativity with cardboard boxes is called:

Not A Box by Antoinette Portis

 
 

She also wrote Not a Stick!!

 
 

Set out open ended creative materials, like markers, tape, glue, construction paper and see what children create!
