My dd has been playing with the car seat box since yesterday. Her and ds have not left it alone. She doesn't even own a toy that she likes more than this stupid box. I bet if I embraced this box thing I could seriously spend 10$  and get both ds and dd two boxes a piece and save tons of Christmas money. lol

I know, kids love stuff like that don't they. Seems a waste to buy them so many store bought toys.

They probably love it for the same reason my son is absolutely in LOVE with tupperware.

if you gave them the box as a gift they wouldn't want it.  kids are ornery that way.

I know what you mean! My daughter got a FREE balloon from the grocery store and has been carrying it around since yesterday. It has went EVERWHERE she has! Last yr for christmas I should have just gave her gift bags with tissue paper because that was all she played with!

LOL my son has been playing with his carseat box all day. It's the most he has played with any of his toys. Children are easily amused by simple things.

LOL!! My baby daughter loves the capri sun boxes, I buy them for the older kids and as soon as she sees me going to the trash can with one it's like Christmas, she runs towards me and grabs the box. She can play with it all day if I let her LOL


      Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm starting to hate store bought toys. DS plays with them for a few days and forgets them.

  I have no clue either.My children do that all the time.The box is the best part of the gift for both of them.lol!!My husband bought a pair of new work boots a few months ago.Well my son got a hold of his shoe box and wouldn't let it go.I just found it and threw it away.That thing was all tore up and colored all over.We have been packing to move and my son asks me every day if he can have just one box.Just one to play with.lol!!So I let him make box forts for he and his sister to play in.
