Step 2: Box

Use a box that is large enough for the child to stand or crouch in . Cut out a rectangle from the front of the box . Cut out the bottom of the box , so the child can walk. Use strips of cardboard 1/3 inch wide to make bars for the cage. Glue in place. Paint the box any color .
Use a rectangle of cardboard to make the city zoo sign. I used tape around the edges of the sign to give it an even straight frame.
Curious George was purchased online for $10 from Amazon.
