    If you go somewhere like Michaels you can find cardboard boxes in circles, squares, star, etc. Then look around for some gems, they usually have some in plastic jars that either have their own sticky backing, or the can be glued on. And paint :)

    For some extra fun get some colored paper and mod-podge and have her deco the box (tear up the paper into little pieces, use a paintbrush to spread some of the mod-podge around before you put the paper on the box, and after. It will leave a nice solid glossy finish. You can also get glitter mod-podge that dries glittery. Little kids love this, I work at an art studio.)
