An Affinity With Boxes


Ace loves boxes.

He loves them in all shapes and sizes.

If it is a small box, like the one that was used to deliver Daddy's Amazon book orders, he would put his toys in, put his shoes in, put lots of things in and then take them out again. Put them in, take them out, put them in, take them out...

It is a amazing and amusing to find that just a simple box can keep him occupied for a good half an hour.

But if it were a big one.. like the one that Waipo is using to make props for her school concert, he would try to put his whole body in.

He would insist on going inside and sitting inside.. and then after a while, he would get tired of it and try to come out again.

His favourite though, I suspect, are those biscuit and cereal boxes. These little things usually dun have a good ending.. they are just torn and shredded into pieces when they reach Ace's hands.

He is sick of that Amazon box now and has taken to tearing out the scotch tape that keeps it in shape. I suspect he will very soon dismantle the whole box and tear it into shreds....
