The kids' art supplies arrived in a big rectangular box. I have to hand to Simone for seeing the potential in what most folks would view as purely utilitarian. That which delivered fun items ... was itself a fun item. Simone asked if she could have the box and I happily obliged. I thought that since we had painting on our brains that morning, she would use it as a canvas. Instead she did this.
Do you see her? Here's a closer look.
Simone first poked holes for her eyes and nose, found it suitable, and then made holes for arms. What did she get? Her very own robot disguise! If you look closely at the bottom center of the box, you'll see the letters, "YMCA." After she got tired of the robot she decided to make it the YMCA guy that is the mascot the organization brings to all its events.
Max wanted to try too and ended up acting very much like the YMCA guy who very poorly sees where he's going and, according to eyewitness accounts by Simone, will toddle about unless someone is holding its hand.
