Baker Family Cardboard Challenge
At Baker you don’t just think outside the box, you cut the box, design the box and play inside the box! Family, community, play and creativity; these things are at the heart of Baker’s mission and they will all come together. With kids in the creative lead, parents, neighbors, grandparents and friends, design, cut, tape, paint and decorate their cardboard creations. In past years Baker has seen a Trojan horse, trains, cars, airplanes, a time machine, dollhouses, haunted houses, cat scratching posts, robots, and giant pencil, and more! Creations can be taken home or added to the recycling bins. Come when you can and leave when you need to. Please RSVP by October 10th, so the art teacher, Ms. Toole, can best prepare for space and materials. You can call the Baker office to RSVP 847-425-8500
