Kids are genius when it comes to finding fun stuff to do for hours on end.<BR/><BR/>If my grandma knew that a bunch of us kids were going to be staying over (as we often did for weeks during the summertime), she would have one of my uncles (who sold appliances) bring by a big box. It didn't matter if it was a refrigerator box or a dryer box...we spent HOURS playing with those things. Good memories, those.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03362618797920704090noreply@blogger.com
