GRANDVILLE, Mich. ––Valentine's day is about showing your loved ones that you care, but it's more importantly about spending quality time together. It's not just a holiday for couples, but for families alike. As families, we spend lots of time together even though a lot of it isn't quality time. You can use Valentine's Day as the perfect opportunity to do something fun and carefree together. It could be a nice dinner out, an outing downtown, or even some fun activities inside, especially since this Valentine's Day will be another cold one. We've come up with 6 fun Valentine's Day crafts to do with the family that can be done inside and that will make this holiday a memorable one, together!
1. Heart Penguin Craft
These cuties are made with simple construction paper! All you need is construction paper in blue, black, white, yellow, and red/pink, safe scissors, and glue. Get creative and have your kids decorate the background!
2. String Heart Yarn Cards
Remember string art? It has made a comeback, and is the perfect craft for children! These require some thick card stock paper, colorful yarn, and a large threading needle.
3. Finger Painted Love Sign
For variation, you could even use an XO or a heart shape for similar relief effect. This project requires cardboard, tape, paint, and a canvas or paper.
4. Rainbow Heart Suncatchers
These jewel like sun catchers are both fun to make, and lovely to keep on your windows especially during the grey winter months. For this craft you'll need plastic sheet protectors, scissors, tissue paper, paint brushes, and mod podge.
5. Popsicle Stick Picture Frames
This is a craft that can be customized to any holiday or occasion! They require popsicle sticks, paint, glue, and any other decorations you might want like puzzle pieces, jewels, etc. Then fill with a photo or hand drawn message.
6. Tic Tac Toe Snack Craft
This one if both a craft AND a snack, and we think that's the best sort of combination. Not to mention you get a fun game out of it, too. Good luck not eating these cute boards before playing!
7. No-Sew Heart Pillow
Your kiddos can be extra creative with this one! Take a trip to the craft supplies store, let them choose a fun fleece fabric & add rhinestones, puffy paint, or whatever else their little hearts desire.
8. Wax Resist Valentine's Day Cards
Use this craft to make cards, or art that you can hang up around the house! All you need is some card stock or watercolor paper, watercolor paints, and a white crayon.
Note that these kids Valentine's Day crafts can get messy, so make sure to set-up for an easy cleanup; similar to doing regular maintenance on your vehicle to extend its life. If your car is reaching the end of its life and is becoming unreliable, it may be time to breakup and move on to a shiny new valentine vehicle. We'd love to help you find the perfect vehicle for you, your family, and all your adventures together.
