The King of the Castle

Who didn’t have a refrigerator house/castle/spaceship? I once played with one at my grandmother’s sleepy beach house for an entire month, until the chickens moved in.  And then there was the hungry goat.  Ah, those halcyon days….

The humble refrigerator box is a distant ancestor of  this cardboard plane, which is a wonderful gift for any child, and a fleet of them may make a brilliant birthday party activity. ($50 each).  I love me a plane that doesn’t require a few glasses of wine to ride.  And how sweet would passport invitations be?

And to where would one fly a cardboard plane? Why, to ones cardboard castle, of course! (Also $50) 

Where one may have use of a sword ($6 per 12)…

or crown…

And after HRH has tired of his noble cardboard toys ? Recycle them!

Oh.  And watch for chickens and goats.
