The best part was after it was all set up & I took the packaging insides out to the recycle box, how the girls giggled & jumped in the box the second I showed them it was empty!! So cute. It's about 2' x 3' (overly large: no surprise) & I then proceeded (after they were sitting in there for 20 to 30 minutes playing ) to cut little doors that open & close (like windows) with a butter knife - so adorable,really! I knock on the window & say "hello??" & then little Athena opens the window & says "Peek a boo! Pika _chooo!" hee hee -- and her sis Aurora (7) is still young enough to be sittin in there w/her while watching an anime cartoon - so it's a mutual thing - I pushed them around for a little bit like a choo choo train too (which Athena is really into right now) ; heh.. oh, and we re-watched "The Polar Express" : awesome movie. I've never felt so much like I was on a roller coster outside of Disney & Knox Berry Farm; heh.
