Side note: He loves his Saturday art class. Go figure? 🙂

I think yours is quite functional and perfect for open-ended play. I bet in my house it would have something to do with food storing or food making.

The way I see it, kids don't care, so way should we go to any trouble to make things pretty if no one's going to appreciate it. Unless, of course, you ARE a crafty crow and it makes YOU happy. Then by all means, craft it up.

PBug's always stealing my tape and coming up with things like this. No stapler, hole puncher, glue bottle, scissor, paperclip, ribbon, etc. is safe around here. And heaven forbid she get ahold of a box!
