FAQs
What materials do I need?
Just cardboard boxes, scissors, and tape or glue for most templates. Most families have everything needed at home already! More complex templates will tell you if additional materials are required.
How long does assembly take?
Most templates take 30-60 minutes for adults, 45-80 minutes when building with kids. It's about the journey, not the speed!
What ages are these appropriate for?
Our templates are designed for ages 3-10, but we've had teenagers and adults enjoy building too! Younger children will need help with cutting.
Can I print these multiple times?
Absolutely! You own the files forever. Print as many as you want, whenever you want.
What if my cardboard is a different thickness?
Our templates work with most standard cardboard boxes. We include tips for adjusting to different thicknesses in every download.

My 5-year-old spent 3 hours playing with the truck we built together. Best investment in creative play!
