Cereal Box Laptop

Thanks goes to Mr Bump for this project for:

  • Conception,
  • Visualisation,
  • Development,
  • Materials requests and
  • Realisation of this project.

WonderHubby deserves a thank~you for responding to aforementioned materials requests with grace and style.
And plenty of patience.

You will need:

  • Cereal box
  • Scissors
  • Pictures for monitor
  • Pictures or stickers for keyboard
  • Glue
  • String
  • Stapler
  • Small bottle or sultana box
  • Sticky tape

What to do:

  • Cut around the top, one side and bottom of the front of your cereal box, forming a flap that will become the monitor.
  • Add pictures to decorate the screen.
  • Stick on the keyboard pictures or stickers.
  • Cut a length of string to use as the cord for your mouse and stick or staple one end to the back of the laptop.
  • Attach the other end of the cord to the small bottle or sultana box; this is going to be the mouse.
  • Decorate the laptop further if you wish.

Other thoughts:

  • Mr Bump used some pebbles from his rock collection for the keyboard and PVC glue to hold them in place.
  • We cut a little ‘Yakkult’ bottle in half to use for the mouse, although you can’t see it in the picture!
