Big boxes, small bags, large pots - whatever their size and shape, they are containers, designed for holding things.

Some materials are better at storing and holding certain kinds of objects than others (you don't see many teapots made of paper!). By making your own containers you can choose the most suitable materials and make things that are attractive and do their job well. So if you're always being told to tidy everything away, this is the perfect activity for you!

To graduate from the School of Special Storage Solutions, make one of the various containers included in this activity. Each one has a different use and requires different materials, so select the one you are interested in, or design your own.
