Valentine Craft

Arts and Crafts Activity
1. Heart Animals: Make animals out of different shaped hearts.

2. Empty a small box of conversation hearts. Make sure you get the boxes that have the heart shaped cut out with cellophane over it. Take individual pictures of your class using a white background with red hearts hung all around. Cut the front of the box off from the rest of the box. Cut the child's picture out so that it will fit into the heart shape cutout in the box. Laminate and put a magnet on the back. The front of the box makes a precious picture frame

3. Valentine Necklace:
Using cheap clear plastic table cloths or clear plastic cut out hearts (about hand size). Put two together and hole punch them around the edges. Have kids sew them together with red, pink, or white yarn/string. Have them leave an opening at the top. Inside they can stuff a variety of things into the heart like shredded red and pink paper, conversation hearts, valentine candies, etc. Be creative! Then, finish sewing it up, and leave extra string to make a necklace!
