    Batman Valentine Exchange Box

    by Melissa@StockpilingMoms on February 13, 2011



    Pin It

    This year my son had a homework assignment to decorate a shoebox to use to exchange his Valentine’s at school.  Thinking that we would get some red paper, cut out some hearts and maybe use some glitter I was armed and ready.  I made the mistake of asking him, “how” he wanted to decorate it.  When he answered “I think I want to make batman’s car” that is when I knew I was handing this project off to his Dad.

    I am lucky that my husband has an artistic flair and can literally draw and create almost anything my son has every asked for.  So when he said “Batman’s Car” is what he wanted, that is what he got.

    I wanted to share the final product with you as I was so amazed at how my husband could turn items we had in our craft cabinet (a little shoe box, paint, foam board and construction paper) into Batman’s Valentine Exchange Box.  How do you think he did?  I can tell you there is a happy little boy at our house!

    Loved the Batman car. I would have never thought to use foam board. I will remember that next time!
    My son ( 7 yrs old) wanted an Army Tank for his Valentine’s box. I really had fun working on it with him. That is how memories are created!
