If I did that, my younger kids would pull them all out of the box. It's facinating to them how many tissues are in a box, how much paper is on the toilet paper roll, etc. I put the tissue boxes on a high shelf in the linen closet. I get a handfull of tissues down for the child who needs them.mommeeof10https://www.blogger.com/profile/03611832953435781430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5454170281597278721.post-86129288976977097762008-07-11T15:37:00.000-05:002008-07-11T15:37:00.000-05:00i lurve purty tissue boxes. yes ah dew.i lurve purty tissue boxes. yes ah dew.VDoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04542535234309505428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5454170281597278721.post-37652894471189503102008-07-10T23:36:00.000-05:002008-07-10T23:36:00.000-05:00Wow.

It was undoubtedly sewn with loving hands by either herself, or the lovely elderly lady who she visits at the nursing home and with whom she plays Canasta.
