Default How to defferenciate 'in' and 'into'

Hi, if anyone could elaborate and give examples to me, how to defferenciate the prepositions of 'in' and 'into'?

eg.
1. Put the knife in/into the drawer?
2. Put the toys in/into the box?

Thank you.

Welcome, leelingnyan.

You may want to take a look here first: Prepositions of Direction: To, On (to), In (to)

All the best.
