Actually, I have to say that Malcolm's favourite toys are his siblings. He gets extremely put out when they disappear from his view, and loves nothing more than to be included in their play. The other day, they took away a plastic bottle he was playing with - they made a craft with Myriam using food colouring, oil and sparkles in a bottle that is Lava Lamp-esque. He loves their full-sized ones, but as quickly as the bottle was taken Malcolm's hand, the little one made just for him appeared and a crisis was averted. It was Colin to the rescue! He might not fawn over his little brother, but he is attentive and caring. Even though he pretends he isn't.
Malcolm's second favourite toy is, yes, the diaper box. When Colin isn't playing "Boxasaurus" wandering around with it on his head, that is. As an aside, we have officially entered the Cretaceous! Dinosaurs are a HUGE deal around here, and I've had to brush up on my sauropods and pteranodons. I was a big dino fan when I was a kid, and it is fun to relive the excitement.
