Choosing the right style of Valentine box could very well be one of the biggest decisions your child has to make all school year. After all, Valentine boxes should be as unique as your children. Forget the standard pink shoebox, and embrace your crafting skills with these great ideas. Your kids are bound to find an idea, or maybe some inspiration for a Valentine box perfect to show their classmates.
Paiges Party Ideas has the perfect idea for your Lego lover. Color according to a favorite color, and use Solo cups as the Lego. Get your child involved and have them help paint and glue the materials on their box. To give it a glossy shine (like a Lego brick) use a clear spray paint.
Finding an empty shoe box can actually be harder than it sounds (especially when you desperately need one) use an old wet wipe container instead of a shoe box. The wet wipe container makes the perfect frog because the lid can open and close (creating the frog’s mouth), and you don’t even have to cut that tricky slit in the top of the box! Idea from A to Z and J
Who doesn’t love The Minions? Instead of the classic yellow and blue, try personalizing the box with a favorite color. Plus, this is another idea that doesn’t require a shoe box. Reuse an old two liter soda bottle. If you don’t think you could recreate this idea just from a picture, here is the tutorial from Laughing and Losing It.
The perfect idea for your shark loving little boy (or girl!). Use an old Kleenex box, and have your little one draw eyes while you cut out the shark teeth. Make sure that they put their name somewhere on the box! Get the tutorial from Kiwi Crate.
Everyone loves superheroes, so create a superhero box this Valentines day. Of course, this can be changed to Batman (or virtually anyone else) if you don’t have a Wolverine fan in your midst.

A classic take on the Valentine box. Paint a plastic mailbox pink, and you have the easiest Valentine box out there. Of course, if your child is anti pink, any color would look just as great! If you are looking to really stick with the mailbox theme, consider turning your child’s class Valentines into little letters addressed to their classmates.
