- Valentine Notes: Take pink and red construction paper and cut out all different size hearts. Let your children decorate the hearts and address them to each person in the family. One the heart have the child write what they love about that person. Then, put the note in the persons room or lunch box or even put daddy’s in his briefcase. It will be fun for them to read the note while they are away from home.
- Valentine Gifts of Love: Have your child create special coupons for daddy and mommy. Use the computer to create these or you can use construction paper. Let your children decorate them and one you have a couple done, staple them together and you will have a coupon booklet. You can put what ever your child wants to on the coupon. Some examples are: Coupon good for a hug, coupon good for a kiss, coupon good for reading a book etc.
- Valentine Bag or Box: Take a lunch bag and have our child decorate it. You can also use a show box with a hole cut in it. You can use some cut out hearts glued on, stickers, markers and crayons even glitter and glue will work. Anything to make their bag/box special. Once your done, you can bring the bag to school so your child can use it for his or her valentines. Also, if you have siblings, they can create a valentine for each other and put it in their bags.
- Big Valentine: Take a large piece of red construction paper. Cut a large heart out. Next fold it in half and cut a small heart in the middle. Take a picture of your child and put it in the center where the small heart is. After your child has decorated it, he or she can give it to daddy when he gets home or Grandma and Grandpa if they live close.
