Kids are so funny some days. I got a package in the mall yesterday it as about 42 inches tall and about 20 inches wide. So it's a good little box. All of the kids fit in it. I told them it was a boat since they all fit in it perfectly. They have been coloring it, stickering it since yesterday. I told the, I'm going to take it to the basement and make it a little closet for their dress up clothes. Boss ate just so fun. Kids go wild for them and can be better then a toy most day. Makes them all use the imginiations. Early this morning my daughter told me it was an elevator. Children!!

Haha one time one of the boxes was a boat, not a plan yet but one day maybe. Or a spaceship but their little sofas they say all of the time are spaceships so the boxes might not turn into those.

Some times when I was little I used them as little houses to live in. But lots of kids love them and use them for all kind of things.

Kids are playing but at the same time discovering and exploring on their own that results to learning.Yeah,I agree with you they play so hard like my kids,had played a big box many times and sometimes are the caused of fights because they scrambled it and after place it in a place where they couldn't see it anymore.

I told them they need to leave the box alone for a little bit. Because after awhile they do start to fight over it and stuff. As long as they are nice to each other they get to play with it after three warnings I stop the, and move the, on to something else. Right now is a bit of tv time. They all like watching one show that has a new episode playing right now so I told the, to sit down and wait it for 30 minutes. If they get bored of the show one of all of the, will take off to play something else. Kids always going from one thing to another. Can't wait till it's warm and I have two more car seats so then we can leave the house to go to the park or library.

I think all kids do. My husband told me a story about year they used a box as a sled right after a bizarre was over. Tones of snow send they had no sled but a big box.
