[Image]I asked Desert Boy if he wanted a box to play with. He looked at me with his big blue eyes, nodded his head emphatically, and said, "Yes." So I got a box and put it on the floor. He started out looking at it, trying to figure out what to do with it.
[Image]First he stuck his head in. Do you like the monkey on his back? I was trying to get him ready for an upcoming trip. He likes wearing the monkey, especially with a little flashlight attached so he can be an explorer like his dear friend, Dora the Explorer.
[Image]Next came an attempt to step into the box...
[Image]...which was successful, but a box can be unsteady...
[Image]...and out fell Desert Boy.
[Image]He tried to get in again...
[Image]..but ended up crashing. My, how much entertainment one box can provide!
[Image]He was on the floor, but decided he wasn't going to let the box win. Go, Desert Boy, go.
[Image]He's stepping back in...
[Image]...but the box overturns.
[Image]Desert Boy pouts. He's definitely getting ready for those terrible twos.
[Image]He gives me this whimpering look, and I tell him to suck it up and try again. Don't let a cardboard box beat you, boy.
[Image]And then, success! He manages to sit in the box. With the monkey.
[Image]Ah, what sweet contentment.
[Image]But it doesn't last for long, because after all, it's kind of fun to crash.
[Image]I'm wondering how much more use Desert Boy and the monkey can get out of the box!
