Valentine Mailbox Ideas and a Lil’ Freebie

This weekend I realized I need to send out my pre-Valentine’s Day letter to all the parents. That means it is almost time to do the exchange of Valentines itself and that may mean it’s time for kids or even the teacher to make their own Valentine box or bag. I was searching for possibilities and here are a bunch of neat ideas I found. Plus I linked up with Manic Monday at Classroom Freebies and Teaching Blog Addict’s freebie Friday, so at the end of the post you will find a little language arts freebie you may be able to use!

Scroll down after the collage to see individual craft ideas. Images are linked in below the collage.

Now if you are not crafty at all like me (I can be I suppose but it takes tons of time and effort) could purchase something already made to decorate. Here are a couple ideas I saw on Amazon (click to jump to their page on Amazon):

 Now if you want a whole book of ideas for Valentine’s Day at school, not just a mailbox, this looks like it will do the trick:
