Boxhead

Joshua's not afraid to try new things.  Sometimes that includes things that aren't good ideas.  Today we had an empty cardboard box that originally held Pepsi Next cans.  I asked him if he wanted to play with it, not sure of what he would do.  He decided it would make a good hat, which seems reasonable.  He then decided to pull it completely over his head and walk around just to see what he would run into. He slowly wandered around like a blind man without a cane, gently running into various objects such as support columns and couches.  Every time he crashed into something, he would then change direction and wander somewhere else.  I admired him for his bravery but had some reservations about his judgment.  Later, he decided the hat was too tall, so he modified it to a size that was more to his liking, although sadly it ruined the potential for blindly crashing into things.
