OK, so we couldn’t find a picture of the product without the screaming kid. Nevertheless, we’ve always said if you buy a kid a carboard box, he or she would be plenty happy and have hours of imagination fun. It’s still the best gift ever - if you can convince the kid that a box is a gift.
If not, here’s a step above. A cardboard box with a little built-in imagination. The company, Carboard Creations, out of the UK, makes this plane, a teepee, a fort and some other great ready-to-fold, very sturdy cardboard toys. They’re quite a bit more than the $2 job from the storage place down the street, but they look like much more fun.
