Why we LOVE this product!
Kids already love playing in cardboard boxes, and Boxineers gives them the tools to turn that instinct into real engineering. A screwdriver, bolts and brackets let them design and build their own vehicles, and the reusable parts mean every box can become something new.
We especially like the upcycling angle: it teaches kids that useful things can be made from what's already in the recycling bin.
Two things to weigh: boxes aren't included, and builds depend on the boxes you have. For a hands-on, open-ended engineering kit, it's great value.

About
The Paper Store
The Paper Store began in 1964, when Bob Anderson opened a small newsstand in Maynard, Massachusetts. What started as a neighborhood business grew into a family-run specialty retailer, expanding its offerings over the years to include greeting cards, books, gifts, and other carefully selected merchandise.
Built around a commitment to community and a more personal shopping experience, The Paper Store developed into a destination for discovering thoughtful gifts and everyday treats. As the business grew, it expanded its range to include fashion, jewelry, accessories, home décor, children's products, and popular gifts from well-known brands.
Today, The Paper Store is part of TPS Group Holdings and operates a network of stores alongside its online shop. Its collection brings together established favorites and emerging brands, with products chosen to help customers celebrate milestones, express appreciation, and find something special for friends and family.
The company's philosophy is summed up in its mantra, “Give Better.” The idea is to make shopping about more than simply buying a product: it's about finding something that brings joy to someone else. From playful toys and cuddly plush animals to distinctive accessories and meaningful gifts, The Paper Store aims to make discovering and giving something special an enjoyable part of everyday life.
