When I first gave this box to the girls,  it looked like this:

All the extra stuff was already IN the beans.  They played with it for a few minutes, but then got distracted and lost interest.  I was disappointed; I thought it was so great!  Then I realized that they were having trouble playing with it because there was TOO MUCH in the box!  So the next time I gave it to them, I separated all the goodies out into little containers, like this:

black beans, mini erasers, pompoms, spider rings, and more

They had a much better time playing with it, and kept at it for a long time.  They pulled the little containers out and just used what they wanted.

For example, Lena made Halloween cupcakes by scooping and pouring the plain beans into a muffin tin and then using some of the extra items as decoration.

And don't forget, you can always climb IN the box, too!

Lena then poured all of the goodies on Maggie's feet and used it as "soap" to wash her.  Wasn't that nice of her?
