Instructions:

1. Wrap an empty box (hair dye, toothpaste, paper mache, any box will do) with colorful wrapping paper or paint a bright color.
2. Decorate the “gift” as creatively as possible and tie a big ribbon around the package.
3. Attach the following poem to the package:
   I took an ordinary box
   As empty as can be
   I filled it with a special gift
   And wrapped it carefully.
   But please don’t ever open it
   Just leave the ribbon tied
   And hold it tightly near your heart
   Because my love for you’s inside!
