We can’t wait to celebrate Valentine’s Day because let’s face it, it doesn’t get much better than a whole day dedicated to love and treats. But we especially love Valentine’s Day because it gives us just another reason to smother our little ones with kisses – both real and candy 😉

Start by cutting out different hearts in different colors and sizes. These can be used to either decorate the front of the card or be strung together to create a pop-up on the inside of the card. Ask your little one where they want the hearts to go and let the creativity flow!

FotorCreated

Once you have your cards decorated, it’s time help your little one personalize their Valentines! A simple and easy way to do this is by adding your Valentine’s initials on the front of the card. Next, help your little one write a sweet note on the inside. This is a great opportunity to encourage them to think of something nice to say about each recipient. That’s what Valentine’s Day is really all about!
