Cheap , Fun & Educational

[Verusamore]

I've relized that alot of my childhood was based upon lego, paper planes, destroying things and digging holes in my grandmas yard(Mini-Golf) , what ideas can you think up for something Cheap , Fun & Educational for the growing child to do .

I used to enjoy Kitchen stuff, pastry offcuts, mixing bowls with dough or cake mix, any sort of kitchen involvment.

Growing things in the gardem was cool too

 

getting a simple Microscope and hunting around the house for cool things to look at.

 

a Basic Chem set

 

a basic Electronics set

 

going for walks in the woods or feilds and collecting seeds and flowers and leaves of as many diferent plants as possible then coming home and looking them all up in books to know what they are etc...

 

the sky`s the limit dude ))
