This week Abi wanted a box and it just so happened our neighbor is remodeling. It was peeking out of the large dumpster and after a knock on the neighbors door and a little diving we came home with two big boxes and a couple of 5 gallon buckets(for grey water collecting).
The kids found a double piece of cardboard inside and decided it was a butterfly. Then they drew the lines on the box to which I sacrificed my bread knife and cut the doors and window. Then some duct tape. Then a wire handle for the door. Then markers, crayons and all the neighborhood kids in the box coloring and writing their names and other silly things.
My 13 year old even got into it untill she decided she needed her own box—so now we have two crazy looking creations on the patio. Don’t think they will make it past the weekend but the have had oh so much fun this week.
Stop by Best Buy or Sears, get a box and have some fun!
