Box Play for Kids is a new Arizona-based company that will have parents thinking twice before recycling their cardboard. Box Play for Kids sells stickers that turn an ordinary box into an extraordinary vehicle for imagination.
The stickers are designed to fit typical cardboard items like shoe boxes, tissue boxes and milk cartons. The stickers are made from recycled and paper which lets children draw on them. The stickers come in 22 different styles and feature such fun things for kids as whales, pianos and pigs. Children are becoming more and more tech-savvy as the years go by. This can be both good and bad, as technologically educated children are great, but they also tend to use less and less of their imaginations. Here's hoping that more businesses follow the lead of Box Play for Kids and offer kids fun that doesn't involve technology.
