The Adventures of a Box

Some will say, that a young child will be more interested in the box the toy came in than the toy itself. Depending on your child, I think laundry baskets have more appeal in general as my kids are quick to help me rescue the toy from the twist ties and corrugated fibers.

I decided to throw a good sized box out to Eliza during one quiet time and encouraged her to decorate it with crayons. It had once housed a care package from my mother, and it had been kicking around our bedroom as I procrastinated dealing with the contents.

So here is a chronicling of the box this week.....
