problem with parent constrain (wip animation)

#1

hi, guys, if u can find time to help me out i’ll appreciate it. i have a problem with attaching object (a box) to my character’s hand and then animating it. how should i go about this . i’ve added two videos below which shows the problem i have

1st video , just a roughly animated box in step mode, which if i leave it that way will be a problem ones i chance the tangent.

2nd vid, is the one i tried to parent constrain it. which is messy

i can constrain it so to move when i want it to but when the character moves with the box, that when things get messy.
