tis’ the season for…

…extra cardboard! We do a lot of online shopping, which means we end up with a boat load of extra cardboard boxes around the house. Luckily, our brilliant babysitters showed us how to repurpose these lifeless boxes into some awesome toys. Truth be told, these creations get far more use than any.other.toy.in.the.house. Bottom line, buying in bulk now means low prices and endless adventures in our house. If you have extra boxes, here are a few ideas to get you started.
