Ooo, what lovely box pictures. I once asked a friend what I should get her 2-year old for his birthday and she said: "Just a box, wrapped in newspaper." I did, and it was his favourite present!
Boxes can be so much fun. I remember when young that we played in boxes and even made forts with the boxes. Only thing was that no one could play in the second story of the Forts. Now I wish we had taken pictures of the Forts. The simplest things can spark the greatest of ones imagination.
Heh, heh! As I just pointed out on Jaime's blog, kids and pets figured out long ago that boxes are lots more fun than the toys that came in them. It's only us clueless grown-ups who have forgotten all about that fun.
Boxes are such fun. We brought a few boxes into our kindergarten classroom and it was like the kids hit the jackpot. A little crazy mania but fantastic.
There Hangs A Tale!

ReplyDeleteMy grandchildren had a series of boxes taped together. It became many things, a train, a tunnel, a plane. I love their imagination.
ReplyDeleteHow is Marigold doing these days?
ReplyDeleteThese are all wonderful, especially the paw...How is Logan?
ReplyDeleteHappy Weekend!
I did answer your question...
A box is a timeless toy. I loved them and so did my children.
ReplyDeleteMarigold died some time ago.... a couple of years I guess? she was pretty elderly.
