When Any Old Hand-Me-Down Box Won't Do

Ok, I admit the copy on this site is clever and it is ecologically sound (except for the shipping of course!) but this is pretty silly. BUYING a cardboard box for your kid to play in. Way to teach imagination, creativity, and self-sufficiency.

There's a reason kids love boxes - they can be anything! It's a running gag in the comic Red and Rover with the kid making up new ways to use the box.

But that's what you got at FridgeBox! Even comes in the right shapes. Jeez.... I know I rail against stuff you don't need but at least get it free and local if you have to have it. Try www.freecycle.com or www.craigslist.com to find community near you - someone is always getting rid of boxes!
