Boxes of Cookies

If you have a toddler, a preschooler or a fun loving older kid, you know the joy and hours of entertainment provided by a simple cardboard box.

My kids are past that phase now. It’s a little sad. But we still have Cookie the kitten (you’ve seen her before). She loves playing in toy boxes. And shoe boxes. But she really loves boxes from Costco, with holes in random places.

We all walk away with cut-up hands from playing with her.  Look at those claws!

  • I tried to leave a comment before, but it wouldn’t let me for some reason Amy. Just wanted you to know it reminded me of my own girls and how they have these Melissa and Doug Play Cookie and Cereal Boxes. Your cat would have a field day with them!! 🙂

  • Ruchira

    ooh…love how you captured them at the right moment 🙂

  • I’m a complete sucker for cat paws. I want to eat them! (Not really) but of all parts of a kitty, I love paws. And then when I see them on a tiger? I melt. Love the photo!

  • Ugh so cute!

  • another jennifer

    Oh my gosh. Adorable! Those paws!

  • very cool photos! how long did it take (and how many photos?) lol thank god for digital cameras…. very nice

  • Oh my goodness, how CUTE! I’m completely besotted with our two cats, so seeing anything like that really makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.

  • Amy

    My husband spent about a half-hour trying to get the shot just right! And his hands have plenty of scratches to prove it. The kitten would swat at him when he got too close with the camera. It was entertaining to watch!

    Amy! Sorry I missed this right when you published it. I LOVE those photos! Your hubby took them? The paws perspective is priceless, hehe. I don’t really buy my cats toys anymore, because like you said, the wackiest, simplest things provide WAY too much entertainment, lol: we have paper bags, boxes, and we grow catnip for them. Those three things ALONE keep us rolling on the floor laughing. HHAHAHA.

16 Hours in Lake Placid

This is the story of  a wedding, a road trip and finding direction. We set out at the crack of dawn to drive north on a damp icky September morning. It was actually 9:30, but it felt earlier because it was Saturday. We were on our way to a wedding, in Lake Placid. ON Lake […]

7 Colleges for Homeschooled, Unschooled and Self-Directed Learners

  I began researching colleges last year, when my daughter began her Freshman year of homeschooling high school. Does that sound a bit early? I feel that the more I know about college requirements for homeschooled students, the more effectively I can prepare my daughter for the admissions process. I think as a homeschool parent, it’s essential to know all the options available. […]

We’ve recently had the pleasure of trying out the Monthly Plan from Creating a Masterpiece, which provides my girls with excellent video based art […]
