A box can be many things


We have had a book for years, called 'A Box Can be Many Things'. Eli must have reread it recently because he has taken it quite to heart. It all began with an amazing skittles vending machine, followed by a snickers machine. 





 Then he made a "Nintendo Switch". His creativity was abounding, right along with the explosion of cardboard in the garage.





This is evidence why breaks from school and some boredom is GREAT for kids. Within a few days, he had built 4 games and set up his room as an arcade. 









His grand finale of the arcade was a car game!



Boxes can also be walls and signs and soon the arcade turned into a "plaza" with a restaurant and
 more prizes.




 When the boys weren't in the arcade, they were building a car and pushing each other down the road.



Yes, that is a box on 2 skate boards...and I did make them put helmets on. 



Said car eventually became a bed and then another wall.

Hey--most of the videos are set to private so they can't be viewed.
