Why I buy toys, I will never know.

My kids have toys.  Really, they do.  Noelle has an entire room full of books, markers, coloring books, dolls, play dough, music...and tons of other stuff.  Nikolai has stuff everywhere that I am constantly tripping over or stubbing my toe on.  But yesterday, they kids had a blast.  They were entertained FOREVER and were just happy as could be.  This was the source of their entertainment....



Yes, a box.  An old diaper box that they made into a race car.  I really should just stop buying toys and start saving boxes.

Poke a couple of holes in the front and tie a rope on front. Now, it's a wagon and you'll get another full day of fun out of it!

Love the pictures! I have decided to purge my son's room because he has too many toys and only plays with 3-5 of them.

I make no joke when I say for Christmas I am giving Alex wrapped, empty boxes. He'll get plenty of toys from other people but I'm pretty sure my gift will be a hit.

I started laughing so hard when I scrolled down! That is classic. I'm telling you - it's like they love the boxes more than the gifts.

Christmas should be a cheap one this year. I'll just go out in the garage and wrap up a few boxes.
