Box TV....Then and Now from Karen C. on Vimeo.
Do you remember the printer paper from the olden days that had the little holes down the sides and the pages were all connected together? Well, I happen to still have some around and it brings back some nostalgic memories from when I was a little girl and used to make crafts and things out of that kind of paper and the other office supplies that my parents had lying around for their milk delivery business.
Last summer as a project I transferred all of mine and my husband's old VHS and Hi8 tapes over to digital. While watching through those I ran across an activity that we used to make when I was little, which was a box turned TV. That inspired me to make one for my own children. I gradually collected the supplies that I would need to build something like. Then, I finally pulled it all out and amazed my children with what can be accomplished using only a box, some paper towel rolls, and some ancient computer paper.
Yes that note says "this is the best" :) I'll take that as a sign that this activity was appreciated.
Baby slept through the whole process, but when he awoke he was happy to see it!
