We are just under a month away from Valentine's Day and the kids and I have been hard at work creating some fun and unique Valentine's Day cards for their friends! Today I'm going to share our top 3 favorites with you all and show you just how easy these are to create with your little ones!
1. Love is a Battlefield
Materials Needed:
Cardstock
Stamps
Army Men
Glitter Washi Tape
2. I love You Beary Much
Materials Needed:
Cardstock
Stamps
Care Bears
Glitter Washi Tape
3. I'm Wild About You
Materials Needed:
Cardstock
Stamps
Wild Animal Figures
Glitter Washi Tape
Instructions:
Use the glitter washi tape to secure your toy figure onto the cardstock. We had some fun and did each card a little different to feel a bit more personalized. Once you figure out where you are going to place your toy figure go to town with your stamps! The stamps are totally optional, as you can easily print your message using a computer and printer, but I found that my 3 year old had a blast helping me stamp them down and I found that I loved the character the uneven letters provided.
These are all great non-candy and fairly inexpensive options to pass out to friends for Valentines Day. If you looking for something more appropriate for children age 3 and under, you can check out my latest post at www.NicoleBanuelos.com for a fun bath inspired DIY Valentine's Day Cards for ages 6 months and up!

Love these! Cute and creative without costing a fortune! So glad to see something other than candy or sweets for littles. The bath ideas are my favorite because that is my son’s favorite thing to do right now ?. Definitely going to save these ideas for future use too! Thanks!

Love this “beary” much too! I’m planning on trying some origami hearts this year with my oldest, and my youngest will probably help paint them :)

For my oldest valentines for school the last two years we did cute little diy valentines.
4K: we took cardstock and wrote you make my heart pop and places a balloon on there with cute heart tape
Kindergarten: we took cardstock and drew on a lightbulb and hole punch holes in the top and bottom and stuck a glow stick threw the holes and wrote you light up my life

Love these ideas!! Homemade valentines are always the best! My son collects rocks so this year I think we are going to do “you rock” valentines with specially picked rocks from his collection?
