Materials

• 1 cereal box
• (2) 12x18 white construction paper
• (1) 9x12 black construction paper 
• (1) 9x12 red glitter cardstock or red construction paper
• Template for panda face
• Template for bow

Tools

• Scissors
• Permanent marker
• Glue stick
• Exacto knife

Instructions

1. Cover cereal box in white construction paper and cut a hole for the valentine cards.
2. Print out the template for the panda face and the bow (for a girl panda)
3. Cut out each piece and use it to trace the shapes on construction paper.
4. Use a glue stick to glue your pieces to the box to make a cute panda face.
5. I also used a hole punch to make two white circle "reflections" on the eyes. If you don't have a hole punch, you can just cut a small circle with scissors.
6. Trace the bow on the back of your glitter cardstock or on construction paper.
7. Cut out bow and add accents with permanent marker. Glue just under the panda's ear.
8. That's it! Now you have an adorable panda valentine box for collecting all those valentines!

Notes

While I linked to all the products on Amazon to make things easy, you will get them for a lot less shopping at places like Walmart or Michaels.

I love how this turned out and my favorite part is that the kids can do this all by themselves.

Now the big question is…what shall we make next???
