Large rectangular shaped cardboard box
Additional box for table legs
Spray paint, any color
Dimensional paint, contrasting color to the spray paint
Glue or heavy duty stapler
String

Instructions:
Cut one large rectangle from one of your boxes. Then cut a hole (just large enough for your child to fit into). With the other box, cut four table legs of equal size. Spray paint the legs and table in your desired color. When dry, write your multiplication facts down the legs of the table in a contrasting color with dimensional paint. When dry, glue or staple the legs to the table. Attach string so that the table rests at waist level. On my son's, we wrote a little poem..."Can you guess what I am? Try if you are able. Don't worry, I'll tell you... I'm a multiplication table!"
