Anybody else really sick of winter?
Yeah. So are my kids.
B-O-R-E-D.
Drag Out The Diaper Boxes.
But oh the fun you can have with a box and some music and a whole lot of imagination.
And so my Dirty Half Dozen grabbed some cardboard boxes … and started drawing and cutting …
… and rummaging through my scraps …
… and creating their own masterpieces …
I spy a Halloween cupcake pick, a nickel, a candy wrapper and an orange band-aid I’m going to pretend is clean.
… complete with – wait for it – rock star glasses to match.
And by the time all of them were done, they’d given themselves super-cool rock star names.
We took their headshots …
… and practiced for their upcoming neighborhood world tour …
And when they had it just right, we cranked up our favorite playlist on iTunes and let them jam away.
And while “Dynamite” by Taio Cruz may not the rock anthem be, my Dirty Half Dozen shredded it like pros.
Oh, and we taped their concert, too. We got some priceless footage “on-stage” as well a hysterical acoustic version of my six-year-olds sure to be smash hit, “I love cute baby unicorns even though they’re not real.”
May I present:
… thank you Mr. Walmart diaper box for an awesome afternoon.
Betcha ‘B-O-R-E-D’ goes away real quick.
