Drew and I made this Valentines box for preschool this year. It's made from a saltine cracker box covered in white paper - we used an end roll we got from the newspaper - they sell the end of their huge rolls of paper for a few bucks - great for kids, packing. We used a little scrapbooking brad for the flag to flip up and down. The flag is made from a cereal box and covered in red duct tape. Decorated in entirely blue, white and red like the Kansas Jayhawk (total 5 year old boy thing!) and we had a winner! I will say that this is a bit small. His class of 16's valentines barely all fit in here and it was sitting vertical on the table when I picked him up from school. So, if we make this again, we'll use a larger box.
