All New Light Box

I love my handy husband.

Our large light box died.
Rest In Peace. 
It was an IKEA's under-the-bed shoe container with lid, used as a slide so many times, it finally snapped.

I asked my clever husband to whip up a tinier version as the dark days are quickly approaching!
Light boxes can be used for all sorts of activities (art/tracing, sensory, imaginary play, building/engineering, science,) any time of year, but we seem to use ours most when daylight is shorter.

He came up with a simple, bottomless box with sturdy plexiglass top and drilled in a small hole to allow the light cord to poke through.
It's already popular and we haven't started any projects yet!
