Most of us love cereal, especially a staple with most kids.  In fact, it can be amazing how much cereal we all go through. That’s not really a problem, except for the fact that it leaves you with so many empty cereal boxes. Sure, you could just throw them away, better yet recycle, but why not upcycle and repurpose them into some creative adventures and turn them into fun family craft projects, instead?
