New Toy Box!

The boys inherited a toy box from Aunt Tiffany. After we took this picture we put safety foam on the corners and loaded it with toys. They've figured out how to open and close the lid and get their toys out. It would be great if they could PUT THEIR TOYS AWAY too.
In time...................I hope......
Zack says, "I'm gonna pop up and you shout 'Zack in the Box!' OK Mom!?! One.......Two......Threeeeee!! "MOOOMMM! You didn't say 'Zack in the Box!' And what's Jake doing in here?? It's not Jake in the Box, it's ZACK IN THE BOX!"

What a nice little toy box! Don't you just wish they could start putting their own toys away? I wish they could do the dishes too, and a little laundry help would be nice as well...:).

Those pictures are so funny. We have a hope chest for Bug's toys too, and it just took time to teach him to put his toys away. I learned that if he saw me doing it he would copy me and then I would tell him he could watch one of his new showes if he picked up his toys. The first time he did it with out me having to ask twice I was sooooo excited!

Cool toy box! Ok, they don't look alike in this picture, but sometimes they do look alike to me! Any who... don't know if you allow your boys to watch Barney, but when Zach was little... he liked Barney. (most little kids do, Brandon and Faith are diggin him!)so I would sing the Barney song "clean up, clean up...." and make a game out of it and he would do it!!! He cleaned! It's worth a shot!

that is very cool. We have a chest almost exactly like that in the basement. How do you keep them from opening it and then the lid falling down on their heads or fingers??? Any ideas for us, then I would use it as a toy box too.
