Homemade Valentine’s Cards for School
Does your child’s classroom exchange valentines? Jessie Jane shares two great ideas for homemade cards that are much cuter than the store-bought ones. They’re easy to make, fun to decorate and oh so adorable!
Caterpillar Hearts
Supplies
- Construction paper
- Pencils
- Glitter paper (available at any craft store)
- Scissors
- Markers
- Googly eyes (optional)
- Glue stick
- Hole punch
Directions
Cut a strip of glitter paper approximately 1 inch wide and 12 inches long. Fold it accordion style – this is the body of the caterpillar.
Cut out a heart shape and decorate the caterpillar’s face. Kids can use markers to draw on eyes or use googly eyes.
Use a glue stick to attached the caterpillar face to the folded strip. Do a triple hole punch (so it’s large enough for the pencil to fit) through the mouth of the caterpillar and each fold of the strip.
