Valentine’s Day will be here in no time! Are you ready?
Some boys think it”s just as fun to create their Valentine’s boxes as it is to actually get them filled up in their classroom party. And some boys protest all the way. But I’ve found some great ideas for Valentine’s boxes boys will love!
There are lots of traditional box-shaped ideas, like the Monster Box, Minecraft Valentine Box, LEGO Valentine Box, Minion Valentine Box, Pirate Ship Valentine Box, DIY Pokémon Valentine Box, and the Dinosaur Valentine Box.
There are also some incredibly detailed boxes, such as the DIY Tow Mater Valentine’s Card Box, DIY Letterbox, Ninja Valentine Box, and Batmobile Valentine Box.
The Shark Valentine Box for Boys and Hot Air Balloon Valentine Basket are also very fun, with a little less effort. Which box will inspire your kid?
