"Boxes" - or - "What Do TV-Free Kids Do Without Saturday Morning Cartoons?"
Today I am uninspired as to a post. Yesterday’s rather philosophical post (“Why Am I Doing This?”) wore out my few remaining brain cells.
People always ask me, what my kids do with their time without TV. So perhaps today I will just post some pictures about what my kids are up to these days with all those boxes I am saving for my future fame and fortune on Ebay. Who really needs all those pricey toys anyway?


I love these photos! So different from the “boxes” many kids are paying attention to on Saturday mornings! My very-low-TV, if not TV-free, brother always tells his kids to “BEWARE THE BOX!” He wants them to be aware of what a life-sucking device the television can be! Well, I don’t think the boxes of your unplugged kids would worry my brother one bit!
Thanks for sharing!

Wonderful! We are TV free too and have been for about nine years, the age of my oldest child. I did let them watch movies (once in a while) for years but we have phased that almost completely out too.
My kid’s best friends are bugs, sticks and mud. Much better than the evil boxes!

Good to read that I am not the only one saving boxes for possible ebay sales. lol. The interior photo of the box is darling. My dd3 hasn’t really started creating a world from boxes. She mostly plays with the band of ten monkeys that follow her everywhere.
