So after MUCH discussion at our house my kids finally settled on their class valentines and today I thought I'd share what we came up with.
All of these printables (as well as the ones I shared in January) are ready to be right-clicked and saved to your desktop and then uploaded to a photo printing place (like Sams Club, Target, Walgreens) and have printed as a 4x6 photo. Once you have the print, fold it in half and staple it at the top of a party favor bag filled with whatever goodies you choose :)
At first Griffin wanted all things unicorn and rainbow and glitter - we had to rein her ideas in a bit (we weren't sure the boys would be super pumped about a glitter unicorn necklace and they ask that all the valentines in PreK are the same) so we decided to put 10 or so GIANT water beads in the little bags and attach them to this...
If you didn't catch my post on water beads over the summer you can check it out HERE and the water beads I bought to give out are HERE.
Mason was introduced to "squishies" by one of his classmates and he was DESPERATE to give them out as his valentines so we obliged and I made him this...
... and he'll put one of these little squishies in the bag, fold the card over the top, staple it and call it a day.
And my FAVORITE was when Luke requested "Wonder" valentines. How FUN and creative is that?!?!
I Amazon Primed the favors yesterday and ordered the photo prints from Sam's Club so we'll be ready to assemble everything this weekend and get a head start for next week. I never got around to decorating this year but do have plans for a fun little Valentine's dinner next week as well and then I'll be in full on birthday party planning mode :)

PS - it's the norm at our school to do little "favor bags" instead of just a card or candy. Any of the ideas that I shared today or a couple of weeks ago would totally work just as a card though if attaching a little favor isn't what your family does!
PPS- the other week I shared a cactus valentine and the link for the growing cacti was incorrect - I just fixed it!!!
These are so amazing, are these ones we can print off as well? You are so very creative! Blessings!
ReplyDeleteYes, ma'am! Just right click and save and then upload to a photo printing site to have the printed in 4x6.

I am always so impressed by your Valentines! ❤️😊 I bought the smaller water beads for a birthday gift for my niece after you had posted about them during the summer. They were a huge hit. Thank you for always providing some great gift ideas!
ReplyDeleteThese are all so cute. We have Snoopy and Emoji valentines at our house. xoxo ERIN
ReplyDeleteThe Wonder Valentines are such a cute idea! Kudos to Luke!
ReplyDeleteStill debating on if it'd be weird or not to pass these out to my coworkers....ha!! I'm 30 and have no kids, but these are just so stinking cute!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteThese are all creative and very cute. We don't do favor bags for school, but I would love to use these for friends. Where do you get all the plastic bags?
ReplyDeleteAndrea, these are all adorable!
ReplyDeleteThese are adorable. I worry about the water beads though with little ones. God forbid a kiddo eats it and thinks it is candy. You may want to rethink that one especially with Kinders. �� As a Kinder teacher I can't help but worry. Plus it might be a liability.
ReplyDeleteAndrea, what is the font name for the "You are wonderful" and "Teacher Tuesday" cursive parts? I love it!!
