I have a school with some First Graders that would like to build a small cardboard community. I am thinking something like a Christmas village at this time of year, but not necessarily. I created some laser templates to cut out. I did a 4″x4″x4″ with a peak roof, a 4″x4″x8″ with a peak roof, 4″x6″ front/back with 4×4 sides and peak roof (the peaks are 2″ above the other height) and a 4x4x4 with a slanted roof. (the dimensions are the rectangles and the roof triangles are added to the sides). I designed the roof pieces to stick out a little.
Here are the links to the cuttle files

It took about 1 minute to laser cut the 4×4 pieces and a couple of minutes to assemble with masking tape. After building it, I was wondering if maybe a 3×3 would have big enough…but not sure if 3×3 would give kids enough space to add….windows doors decoration color……
