Question
My son and I would like to create a Valentine's Day Box for his class.  I want to create something that reflects a boys design (no pink).....can you give me a few ideas that will blow the socks off his classmates?

Thanks

Answer
I don't know about blowing off socks, but to decorate "boy style", try something generic like dinosaurs, sports figures (soccer, basketball, football, etc.), jungle animals, or outer space aliens.

Space aliens from Planet V (Valentine), could be made out of hearts, and all their funny stuff like their lunch boxes or rocket ships or whatever could also be heart shapes.

Sorry I don't have the time to spend on this that I should...leaving in the morning for a big presentation out of state...much to do.

Hope this helps!!

There is one little "lion, having a roaring good Valentine's Day!' box idea. Hmmm. Must be more. Keep searching if you  need more ideas....
