Valentine Collection Box Ideas...

[lingovise]

okay, so my 6 year old really wants his Valentine collection box this year to be a dinosaur... but i'm not having any luck finding a cute one for reference. i've been trying to steer him toward something else, like a robot or alligator... but with only a luke warm reception.

anyone care to share what you've done? or link me up to something cute you've seen... i'd really love to see some other ideas as i've already put this off for far too long :P

Have you checked the shoppe? There are 6 kits with dinosaurs in them: https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/search.php?mode=search&page=1

i'm looking for ways to decorate the box the valentines go in... thankfully already have all the valentines made ;)

he's a big fan of making the box into something that looks like it is "eating" the valentines. this is what he did last year :
