Coin Construction
Ever have handfuls of spare change in your pockets, or do you have a jar brimming full of unwanted change….well how about taking those coins and using them to make fun and creative structures. This may not be as technical as a digital coin sorter or the bank of life, or as traditional as a piggy bank but this is something that even the oldest kid will find themselves amused with for hours. Your spare change can grow into airplanes, castles, trains, robots and even space shuttles. The sky really is the limit, all you need is a little creativity…how about an eiffel tower or london bridge? There are many kits that you can buy with easy to follow instructions. Most kits also come with guidelines for creating your own designs. They don’t even break the bank to buy a kit either starting
at approximately £2.50. ($4) which is less than buying a piggy bank!

Models such as the Airplane, Space Shuttle, Robot and Castle can be made, but it doesnt stop there. Build anything that your mind can think of.
