The Makedo EXPLORE Toolbox enables one or two children aged 5+ to construct imaginative creations using cardboard. Cardboard, a material recognized by the National Toy Hall of Fame, is widely accessible, durable, and recyclable. It can be folded, cut, and punched while retaining structural integrity, allowing for repeated use.
Designed for small groups and home-based projects, Makedo supports hands-on learning while promoting sustainability. The open-ended nature of the system encourages independent building, leading to imaginative play where children direct their own creations.
Suitable for ages 4+, Makedo’s reusable tools foster STEM and STEAM learning through practical experimentation and creative problem-solving. The system helps develop skills while minimizing environmental impact.
Things to Keep in MindA notable number of users reported that the saw tool was difficult for children to use, often requiring significant adult assistance to cut cardboard, leading to frustration. Some also expressed concerns about overall product quality, perceived poor value, or issues with missing/incorrect components upon delivery. Why You'll Like ItThe toolkit effectively promotes open-ended, creative play and can engage children across various age groups, often involving parents and grandparents. Users frequently commend the safety and ease of use of the fastening tools for connecting cardboard, facilitating independent building.
