cardboard rockets
We've been sending and receiving a lot of packages over the past week and my kids love to play with the boxes. Yesterday, my 4-year old brought me a couple boxes and wanted me to make him a "real" rocket, not a pretend one. He's been obsessed with this book lately. After ignoring his 50 requests I finally gave in. He told me what to do – I just had to cut and tape it together for him. It actually turned out pretty cool and he has been playing with it for hours. He even wanted to make a small one for his 1-year old brother (who loves climbing in and out of it). So much for the all the Christmas presents I've been buying. I should just wrap up some empty boxes!

My son always loves the box more than the present!
Those are amazing! Bravo!
Fun! Love the shapes!
also reminds me of the book "Little Boy" by Alison McGhee. check it out if you haven't already.
Fun!
Love it. My three boys would be asking me 100 times to make these if I show them the picture! Very cute.
That is one of the cutest things you have ever featured on this blog; and nearly everything you post is adorable! Think it will work in big people size? :)
Cute post! Bravo!
