Just One More Reason I Love Sonlight

Not only do they have an awesome homeschool curriculum (which we absolutely love!), but it turns out that they also know how to pack a box. Recently I ordered these pattern blocks, pattern animals book and pattern cards. I knew they weren't breakable but they were packed like fine china. There was LOTS and LOTS of paper. See all of the paper?.......

It all came out of the little box below!

Seems that the people at Sonlight also know a thing or two about entertaining my children. They must have known that the paper would keep my little people quite occupied while I got to explore the other contents of the box. I told you they were smart. So many ways that paper can keep your littles occupied.....

They can wind it around themselves after jumping in it over and over again......

They can rest in it and catch their breath.........

And even make a road out of it for their big trucks.

And did I forget to mention coax you into giving them the tape so they can put paper around the bottom of the box and pretend it's their rocket ship? Oh yes, and then grin when they realize you are watching them make REALLY loud rocket noises.

They eventually get tired of the paper after a day or so of crumpling it, drawing on it, painting on it, etc. At which point they inquire as to what else was actually "in that box." Then the fun starts all over again! It's a win-win situation my friends! =)
