We borrowed a great book from the library last week called "Not a Box" by Antoinette Portis. It's filled with simple but engaging drawings of a cute little bunny and all of the adventures he creates in his not-a-box. I love that the book iteself has a cardboard box colored cover. They boys (and Mommy!) are quite taken with bunny and all of his creative uses of his cardboard box. My personal favorite is when his box becomes the basket of a hot air balloon - I never would have thought of that one on my own! Naturally, the boys wanted their own not-a-box...
"I'm driving race car"
"I'm taking a ride in a spaceship!"
"Mom, I just checked. There are NO bunnies in this cave today!"
...and sometimes a box is just a great place for a good old-fashioned game of peek-a-boo!
