Great Kids’ Valentines Ideas
Valentine’s Day was pretty fun for me as a child. My mom would give us a ton of yummy candy (with gummy hearts–so good!) and some sort of gift (usually a book.)
Then we’d pack off to school and give kids our Valentines. We’d construct envelopes from construction paper and staples and the hand out our Valentines.
My mom would buy us the pre-made Valentines usually but one year I decided to make my own. I spent all afternoon doing it and then on the day of the party, when I handed them out, the kids were pretty disgusted with them. No cartoons, no candy. I didn’t even write my name on them because I was embarrassed at the lack of candy they had. So sad.
Kids should be able to make their Valentines and be proud of them. And I suppose….they could maybe include candy. If you really want.
Here are some fun kids’ Valentines ideas to get those creative juices flowing…
