Custom sound box

A sound box comprising:

• a cover assembly;
• the cover assembly comprising a sheet of material having an inner surface and an outer surface, and a plurality of foldlines to fold the cover assembly into a top, a top flap, a sidewall, and a bottom of the sound box;
• the top flap further comprising a means for closing the sound box, the means for closing being a magnetic closure;
• an interior box assembly;
• the interior box assembly comprising
• a base;
• and
• a plurality of box walls, the box walls being attached to each other to form a box structure, the box walls being attached to the base to form the interior box;
• wherein a first box wall is attached to the inner surface of the sidewall, a third box wall is opposite the first box wall, the third box wall further comprising a metal piece that magnetically interacts with the magnetic closure;
• the interior box further comprising an interior wall dividing the interior box into two receptacles, the interior wall further having a gap therein;
• and
• the base is attached to the inner surface of the bottom;
• a compartment assembly, the compartment assembly comprising a sheet of material having an inner surface and an outer surface, the compartment assembly being folded into one or more compartments and one or more tabs;
• the compartment assembly being attached to the sound box top inner surface;
• and
• an opening contained within the first compartment of the one or more compartments, the opening allowing light to enter a light sensor inside the first compartment;
• a sound module assembly, the sound module assembly comprising:
• a printed circuit board;
• an integrated circuit comprising a controller and a sound chip;
• a speaker;
• a light sensor;
• and
• a power source;
• the printed circuit board, the sound chip, the speaker, the light sensor and the power source in electrical communication,
• the sound module assembly retained within a frame assembly, and the frame assembly positioned within the first compartment, the light sensor being aligned proximate the first compartment opening, wherein when the top flap is lifted to open the sound box to light, light enters the light sensor, causing the sound chip to play a sound recorded thereon.

A method for assembling a sound box, the method comprising the steps of:

• preparing a cover assembly from a sheet of material having an inner surface and an outer surface, and a plurality of foldlines, by folding the sheet of material into a top, a top flap having a magnetic closure, a sidewall, and a bottom of the sound box;
• forming an interior box assembly from a base and a plurality of box walls;
• by attaching the box walls to each other to form a box structure;
• attaching the box structure to the base to form the interior box;
• dividing the interior box into more than one receptacle by placing an interior wall in the interior box, the interior wall further having a gap therein;
• attaching a first box wall to the inner surface of the sidewall, a third box wall being opposite the first box wall, the third box wall further comprising a metal piece that magnetically interacts with the magnetic closure;
• and
• attaching the base to the inner surface of the bottom;
• preparing one or more compartments from a compartment assembly, the compartment assembly comprising a sheet of material having an inner surface and an outer surface, the compartment assembly being folded into one or more compartments and one or more tabs, the first compartment of the one or more compartments having an opening therein, the opening allowing light to enter the first compartment;
• attaching the one or more compartments to the sound box top inner surface;
• and
• placing a sound module assembly into a frame assembly, wherein the sound module assembly comprises:
• a printed circuit board;
• an integrated circuit comprising a controller and a sound chip;
• a speaker;
• a light sensor;
• and
• a power source, the printed circuit board, the sound chip, the microphone, the speaker, the light sensor and the power source in electrical communication;
• and
• positioning the frame assembly within the first compartment, wherein the light sensor is aligned proximate the first compartment opening.
