Derek got a package in the mail that was full of packing peanuts. Derek very wisely saved them and I am so glad he did. I took the box and hid all sorts of things in teh packing peanuts. Toys, treats, thing like that. Then I set it in the middle of the floor and let the kids dig through the box. The loved it. And finding the treats was fun but the real treat was in spreading the peanuts all over the floor. Jude kept calling it snow and was having such a fun time filling and dumping the box over and over. They played happily in the mess for an hour till we made them clean up for dinner. But after dinner Jude requested "Snow" again and we wipped it out and spread it around for another hour of play.

Hours of fun for basically free! What a great idea.
