This box has been sitting in our garage for the past six months or so and we like to get it out when we have had a particularly long day with the kids. We hand them a big recycled coffee can full of crayons and let them go to town coloring, creating, and pretending in this box. When they lose interest in it, the box is drug back out to the garage until another long day comes along.
This is always a big hit in our house too!

Always a big hit here, too!

I used to love playing in large boxes as a kid. Heck, I still enjoyed it when I got to play in the big boxes with my own kids. What fun!

Don’t you love the things they find to play with? Who needs toys? My son asked for my Swiffer duster stick EVERY DAY so for Christmas I just put one in his stocking!

It’s true what they say about not buying expensive toys.
Boxes are still one of the best toys around!

Oh the things you can do with a cardboard box! Our 2-year-old loves decorating them and making houses…and we recently created a little oven out of a smaller cardboard box. Sometimes free “toys” are the very best…
