How many times have you spent money on some fancy new toy for your child, only to have her ignore the toy and instead crawl into the large box it came in? Whether you’re on a budget or just refuse to pay high prices for noisy, plastic toys, Box! offers parents do-it-yourself, environmentally friendly crafts that can be made with cereal boxes, packing boxes, toilet paper rolls, and egg cartons. Filled with easy to make cardboard box craft ideas complete with supply lists, four-color photos, tips, and templates, Box! supplies parents with projects that will keep their children entertained for hours, such as: making “little people” with toilet paper rolls; creating a pirate ship out of a milk carton; fashioning a telescope using a paper towel tube; assembling planes, trains, and automobiles from cracker boxes, pasta boxes, or toothpaste boxes; and even constructing a child-sized desk out of three large boxes. This book is the perfect way to make fun, inexpensive, sustainable toys for your little one.

Nowhere near as good as the reviews led me to believe

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 14, 2021

Verified Purchase

This book isn't bad, per se, but I certainly didn't think it was that good either. There are a lot of projects in it, but I don't feel like this book provided much inspiration to make things with my kids. I found very few of the projects to be novel.

For instance:

* Big boxes can be turned into a castle, or a rocket ship
* You can make a mask out of a piece of cardboard
* Swords and shields from cardboard

I did all of this (and many of the other projects in this book) as a kid without any guidance. If you aren't somebody that did a lot of creative play as a kid (or an adult) this would probably be a great book. As somebody that never grew up I don't feel like there was any real value to me other than a few small embellishments and details that I might not have come up with on my own.

On the plus side the instructions were all very clear with good photographs. The photos are of obviously boxes from around the house (milk cartons, shipping containers, etc.) so the instructions are easy to follow.

Nice, quick simple projects

This book has great simple projects. Younger kids will probably need help. My kids are almost six and still tend to trash cardboard creations quickly. I also have the DK Out of the Box book, but those projects are too nice and time consuming to be destroyed upon completion.
Depending on how much time you want to spend decorating, many of the projects in this book can be assembled in less than an hour. A lot of the projects don’t require too much precise measuring or lots of cuts. The DK book does.
So bottom line Box is great for younger kids and can easily be adapted for old ones.

Now my house is a mess. In a good way that is. Me and my son been going at it since it got here today. Thank you. Took a little while but I'm glad that the package came. Still in good and clean condition.
