It’s not easy coming up with Valentine box ideas for boys. If your boys are like mine, they just don’t get into the lovey-dovey hugs & kisses idea of Valentine’s Day. My boys just want the CANDY!!! So getting my boys excited about making a Valentine’s Day box (without hearts & doilies) takes some searching and a bit of creativity.
Last year, I created an easy monster Valentine box for my boy (shown below) that he was proud to bring to school.
For this year, I searched the Internet and Pinterest to create this collection of the Valentine box ideas for boys.
My boys each picked one of these ideas for a Valentine’s Day box.
Follow me on Instagram to find out which Valentine box I will be making for my boys this year.
10 Valentine Box Ideas for Boys
Robot Valentine Box – My son recently made a robot for a school project from an old cereal box, so a robot was on our list for possible Valentine box ideas. Simply cover your box in foil and let your boy decorate!

Easy Monster Valentine Box for Boys
I created this simple monster Valentine box for my boy last year.
The supplies included an old shoebox, orange felt, construction paper (for the teeth), wiggly eyes, fun fur (for the eyebrows), old egg carton (for the eyeballs, not shown), scissors, and my ever-faithful hot glue gun.
And my boy (the photographer) took this photo while I was creating his Valentine box (on a Saturday morning while I was still in pajamas no less). You craft in pajamas too, don’t you?
