When mother lets us make paper box furniture

by G. Ellingwood Rich

FUN ON A RAINY DAY.

When the rain comes down, and the wind does blow,

And indoors we must stay,

Mother lets us to the nursery go

And with our boxes play.

Oh, it’s lots of fun when we’re all alone,

To make such lovely toys,

Especially, when the rain beats hard

And keeps in girls and boys.
