Here’s another super simple way to make blocks from index cards.

Supplies

• Index Cards

Make The Blocks

You can’t get simpler than this: Fold an index card in half. Done. You made a block.

Now do that over and over again until you have a bunch of blocks. Save time by folding 4-6 cards at a time.

Now, build.

When it is cleanup time, you’ll realize how easy these blocks are to store. They’re great to have on hand when you’re away from home with a child in need of a play break.

Variations

You can also try using index cards of different sizes.

Or, you can fold the cards in the other direction.

If you give them a try, please share your experience (and photos!) in the comments section.
