Cover the holes with rubber cut into wedge shapes... Like the rubber thinggy that covers a garbage disposal... Hey, maybe you could buy those. This reminds me of the blackbox experiment we did in chemestry. Cardboard boxes filled with random things and taped shut except for small hanger wire shaped holes. You had a list of the possible things and had to guess what was in your box by shaking it and feeling around inside just with the end of a coat hanger.

I think that I will make a reproduction of the old 1967 Milton Bradley game Feely Meely. I haven't decided if I want to use a cardboard box as in the original or make it collapsible with 1/4" hardboard. The main part of the game Is a box with a hole cut in each side. Around the hole is black felt to help keep someone from looking inside. Now you have about twenty or so trinkets like a small ball, a coin, an eraser etc. You have a photograph of each item and the actual items are placed inside the box. When each picture is turned over the players quickly reach inside the box and try to retrieve the item. I think that I will make this for my grandson's birthday in April. This will give me plenty of time to find objects for the game. Years ago I played this game but the rules that we used was that when the card was turned over the name of the object had to be shouted out. Actually I think I had an advantage because of a great sense of touch.
