Taking to Facebook, Charlotte said: “Anyone else have one of those kids who want something you just can’t buy?

“My kids were fed up with pushing their monster trucks around the garden and asked for a track after searching the internet.

“Nothing good came up so 24 hours later and £6 spent, this is the outcome.

“A happy 5 year old and 2 year old hot wheels monster jam track.”

Charlotte told Fabulous how she used a free pallet and covered it with an old piece of fabric.

Then she screwed down some wood for ramps and added a tube to create a tunnel. Finally, she put in a few bricks to finish the job.

Her only expense was a £2 bag of sand and £4 cement from B&Q.

She added: “I covered over what we had screwed down, used some old garden stones to make the tracks, used an old Christmas tree to make the trees.

“I added a lick of paint and was done.

“It took 24 hours from start to finish.”

She then screwed down some wood to make ramps, added a tube to make a tunnel and then put a couple of bricks to build up the areas

We shared how a mum made her kid a ‘puzzle sandwich’ to make back-to-school easier and parents love the message behind it.

And this mum-of-16 shares colour coding tips to speed up piles of laundry & reveals why she NEVER writes kids’ names in clothes.

Plus this mum upcycled her daughter’s toy Ikea kitchen with a lick of paint to match her immaculate home & it looks unrecognisable.

A smart mum creates a great lunch box station for mornings, and the kids can also help pack their own.
