Here is a handy little toy that looks almost like a real carpenter's tool box. You will find it very useful in carrying your tools when building a play house, or for carrying any small objects from place to place. You can play fix-it-man or woman all day long with a great pretend-play game like this. Find out how to make this craft with a recycled beer or soda carton.
