Recipe for Fun...

Step 1: Go to Dell.com, and buy something big. Something like a whole new computer, or in our case, a network server (though, technically, we didn't buy it...it came from Nathan's work).

Step 2: When it comes to your house, throw the product away- keep the box.

Step 3: Put the kids in their rooms, highchairs, carseats, or a pack-n-play,... and when they're settled, go grab a sharp knife.

Step 4: Cut away. Windows, doors, etc.

Step 5: Wait many moons, for the fun of the doors and windows to fade... then go grab some paint. (In our case, metallic finger paint from Mardel- did I say washable? Make sure it's washable!)

Step 6: Observe.


This glorious box has staying power friends... it's been a favorite in our house since MARCH of 2009!

Fun times! We have a couple big boxes that Codys been having fun with. :) I'll have to remember to have him paint the box next summer when he's old enough to have fun doing so. You are such a fun momma and always doing creative things with your kids. I sooo look forward to being able to do things like that with Cody. Right now the most exciting thing we do is bubbles and a sprinkler toy or baby pool. ha!
