If you need a working checkbox, the only two available in Excel are the
ones from the Forms toolbar or the Control toolbox, and they can't be
resized.

If you need a checkbox you can print, you could use the rectangle tool
from the Drawing toolbar, to create one.
Or, choose InsertSymbol, and choose the Wingding font.
At the end of the list is a checkbox with check mark.

You can't change the size of the checkbox control from the Forms toolbar

I am able to do the checkbox with the forms toolbar and also the Toolbox
toolbar, but I can't make it any larger - it only stays one size. Can you
help me?

Have you tried the checkbox form in the Forms toolbar?

View -- Toolbars -- Forms

Click the checkbox form and click, drag to size, and release it in the
worksheet where you need it. You can resize the text handle down to
near nothing and delete the text in it, too.

Is this small enough?
