Cardboard Boxes
Oh, cardboard boxes!
I wrote a blog a while ago about how beds were better than trampolines. Well now I’ve found the best toy of all ‘The Cardboard Box’. O yes I know what my kids will be getting next Christmas; lots of cardboard boxes. All shapes, all sizes, it’ll be the best Christmas ever!
What brings me to this decision is seeing my two boys spend most of today playing with the packaging of our latest big purchase. They coloured in and decorated their new found rocket ships, they pushed each other up and the hall in crazy space battles before deciding to change the purpose altogether and put the rockets over their heads and run manically around the house! I’m also on orders to buy yellow paint tomorrow as one box will be transformed into Spongebob’s head (so we can be set for Halloween).
It’s a good thing they like cardboard boxes though because if this months mortgage isn’t paid they’re going to be seeing a lot more of them!! Hmmm what can I buy that would come in a box big enough to live in?

That is all I have to say.

That photo just goes to show that indeed the boxes do tend to be better than the toy that was in them. Whatever that toy was though it looks way too complicated to put together.

It was a toy kitchen for my brothers, friends daughter. Heh. I didn’t make it - was too busy in my box
