Seriously. I have spent A LOT of money on toys in my life. Wonderful, open-ended, purposeful play-type of toys, all highly recommended. But you know what really entertains? A box.
A box can be a fort.
A box can be a canvas for artwork.
A box can be a ride.
A box can be a boat.
A box can be ANYTHING kids can imagine. And it's GREAT play!
When we get a massive order in a giant box, my kids immediately come and help me unload everything. It makes my heart happy that they like helping until I realize that they are only doing it to get to the empty box faster. Which is okay, too, because then I get to witness the toddler imaginations at work and it really is a beautiful thing.
