9 Things You Can Do With Boxes

I'm sure many of you think of boxes as a boring object simply because it does nothing, but have you ever put a box outside on a windy day? It runs! And it moves and rolls away. You gotta chase after it, and that makes it as alive as you and me. So this begs a continuance. Now that you know boxes are exciting, you must know all the wonderful things you can do with them.

You don't?

Well, I'll tell you!

Instead of using a box for such drab activities like storage space, you could make it into a backpack. Or rather, turn yourself into a turtle!(That's two for one, folks)



If you aren't the avant-garde adventurer of today, don't worry! There are many things you can do with your box indoors. Why, you could have a staring contest.



Well, staring contests aren't fun for everyone. They make your eyeballs dry and your head hurt from focusing so much. So why not just sit on a box and think about other things you can do with it?


Playing with boxes is also a very educational experience. Simply switch places with a box to learn all about their culture, language, and lifestyle. Remember, they also wanna know more about you too! Ah, isn't the relationship between box and boy so satisfying...

Take your box outside and go hunting. Lure unsuspecting creatures inside, capture them and eat 'em for dinner! Or not. Your choice really...

Another thing you can do with a box is hide. Just squish in right underneath it and disappear completely from sight, effectively cloaking you from monsters in your closet, SARS, and really annoying people(like siblings).
Turn your box into a boat and listen to the song by the lonely island guys. Mmm, smooth sailing. (This idea and drawing courtesy of the infamous George)

And if you ever don't have enough money to pay the rent, your box magically transforms into a second home!
Protects you from rain!
And kids with rocks!

Okay, this last one is a little complicated. First, get on a roof.
 Then, while in box, wait for a strong wind to come, lift you off the roof, and fly away!

It will be scary, results will vary. And only very tall people should attempt to use a box to fly. But hopefully, every turns out well and you get the ride of a lifetime!
 All thanks to the wonder of a box.
