Instructions

  • Start by wrapping your box in white construction paper and cutting a hole with an X-acto knife or box cutter. (I used a Capri Sun box just to give you an idea of the size I used)

Notes

  • The amount of white construction paper you need to cover your dog will depend on how big a box you use. I used two pieces to cover the Capri Sun box and had some to spare.
  • Also, the time it takes to make this will vary based on the age & skill of the child (and also how much of a perfectionist your child is!)
