Fun In A Box


Ah what fun when a box is around. I remember when my parents divorced and my Dad moved out he bought some new appliances and Ashlin and I had a blast playing in them. We built city's, tunnels, houses, etc. Seeing the girls play in a little printer box brings back fond memories. They played with it for hours and by the end it was flattened from them entering and exiting it so many times. We then put it out in the recycler so it can be made into a new box for some child to play in.

Who needs toys when the world is full of cardboard boxes, pots and pans, and drawers full of tupperware?

Glad it brought back good memories. :)

Ditto that. As a child I had a refrigerator box with a door and windows and we drew curtains, etc. on the walls. I was very sad when it finally wore out. Time have improved, however - we burned what was left of in the incinerator! (And lost a few eyebrows with various burning projects.)

What adorable girls. Drew and Mason can get every last inch of fun out of a cardboard box. Usually more fun than the gifr that comes inside! We are bloggers now. Check us out if you want to at http://ptdmdmoosedroppings.blogspot.com/

Loved to see the pictures of my cute little grandpeople in a box.

Ruth, what a nice picture! And Paul is one of our favorite people, so I was glad to see pictures of his kids too.
