Cardboard boxes are obviously created for the purpose of either storing or transporting goods and items. The likelihood is that you will come across a number of them in all different shapes, sizes and designs every single day. One thing that they are not really marketed for but can be extremely useful for is providing your children with some entertainment.
Now obviously when you are thinking of ways to keep your little ones entertained you are not really going to have storage items at the front of your mind. However, if you put a little bit of thought into it then they can actually provide hours of imaginative fun. The list of things that can be made is fairly limitless. How about getting your children to build themselves a fort or a castle? You could help them to make a racing car or to build a pirate ship so they can live life on the high seas. Maybe they would prefer to build a robot with bits added to it to give it more character. Whatever it is that your children would like, they can really use their imagination to make fantasy creations that can let them live out the life of a racing driver or be the king of the castle.
