I adore how Motleytoddler made her light box, therefore I followed her instructions to make an affordable one but I also made some adjustments.
Materials:
container (IDR 24,000 or USD 2)
silver spray paint (IDR 24,000 or USD 2)
tape
LED emergency lamp (IDR 35,000 or USD 2)
tissue paper
Steps:
1. Tape the outer edge of the container to avoid stains when spraying the paint
2. Spray silver paint around the inner side of the container and let it dry
3. Spray the silver paint once again, let it dry
4. Peel off the tape
5. Cover the container lid with tissue paper
6. Put the LED emergency lamp in the container
7. Close the lid of the container
8. Put any toys or media you want to explore on it
DONE!! All cost less than USD 7. Seriously?
Applying silver paint is to avoid the light goes through the sides of the container. I couldn't find frost spray paint for the lid as motleytoddler's suggested so I changed it with tissue paper. I could finish the project in 15 minutes because the paint dried fast. I'm overjoyed to see the result and can't wait to surprise my son 😍❤️💕.
This is not purely montessori method. It's more on reggioemilia method, but montessori also has geometic solid materials. I combined the geometic solids activity with the light box to improve my son's sight sensory.
