Historically I have had the most fun with dirt and boxes, but string was my accomplice in what could have been the crowning achievement of my childhood. I took the kitchen twine and wound it decoratively around all of the trees in our backyard -- a lot of trees, we lived right over the Cuyahoga valley -- and then attempted to set it on fire so I could watch the fire zing around the string. Biiiiig trouble.

Last weekend, one of my kids' friends brought over a Samsung laptop that he made out of a cardboard box.
