One of the things I love best is that there are always enough supplies for two kids to participate every month.  This month, the kids have three projects centered around an eye exam theme.

Everything in the box. The box always comes with a few stickers and a handle to help decorate the shipping box, those were in the envelope in the first photo.

The occluder will come in handy during the exam itself.  First, some simple prep.  The stick needs to be glued to the shape, and that is it.

The kids use contact paper and pasteboard to create their own Snellen chart for use in the eye exam.   Dry erase markers and erasers allow you to experiment with different test content.

Lastly, you need a pair of glasses to try out.  Pipe cleaners make a suitable frame, your imagination provides the rest!

The Eye Exam guide encourages the kids to use their newly-constructed items together in recreating the fun and excitement of a trip to the eye doctor.

Our guy likes to make his Snellen tests more like Rorschach test.

Glasses are fun when they are pretend!

My Pretend Place Play Projects Box is a simple kit that encourages imaginative play.  The crafts range from nearly-automatic to pretty easy (though the contact paper put up some fight this month), and your kids supply the most important part of each box — their imaginations! The kids had an absolutely fantastic time with this month’s box and it was a keeper for continued playtime. We were happy to see
