Decorating Ideas...

If you are wondering what to use to decorate your Learning from Play product, here are a few ideas:
  • Poster Paint
  • Acrylic Paint
  • Poster/Acrylic Paint mixed with PVA glue to give it a glossy finish
  • Tin Foil
  • Magazines and Newspapers
  • Stickers
  • Posters - Here is a site that we like to use, Sparklebox
Try not to over saturate the cardboard while decorating, but most importantly have lots of fun making your product your own!

If you have any other suggestions please let the Learning from Play team know, and we can add them for everyone to use.

Welcome to the Learning from Play Blog

Welcome to Learning from Play’s first ever blog! At Learning from Play we have decided to create a blog to keep in touch with all of our customers, and to let you know of any interesting information that is happening in our world. We will write about special offers, new developments and anything else that we believe will be an interesting read for our followers! As you all know Learning from Play designs and creates products out of cardboard for children to play and learn from. We want and aim for children to explore their imaginations and creativity and to make learning fun. Our designer has created a range which includes spaceships, pirate ships, beach huts, puppet theatres, a house, shop and a pyramid. Each of the Learning from Play products begins as a craft project that needs to be assembled and which can be decorated. Our products are great, and don’t forget to look at our website which has its own activity centre with free resources for you to use .
