I made this super simple cardboard box car park with my 3 year old a few weeks ago. We used it to practice numbers and colours with the cars. We love any recycled car crafts as they tend to get used for a long time rather than just once and then thrown away.
We counted, matched colours and worked on recognising numbers with the car park. I used our Way to Play road track to build a road leading into the car park which made it even more fun!
Recycled Cardboard Box Car Park
I used a cardboard box lid for this one, but a flat sheet of cardboard would work as well.

It was super easy to make and kept Charlie busy for a whole afternoon!
