Tug at their heart strings
If you have a craft-loving kid, these cards are perfect. Red Ted Art gives all the details you need to put together these adorable, textured Valentine’s Day cards using cardstock and yarn. While a dedicated kid could make one for each classmate, these are best reserved for close family members as they can be time consuming. You can skip a step and purchase cards with a cutout heart window, or just use cardstock or construction paper and cut the hearts out yourselves.
Pro tip: To make this easier for younger kids, place double-sided tape on either side of the heart to keep the yarn in place as it’s laid down. You can also trade the yarn for ribbon which can be a fun alternative.
See how it’s done in this fun video!
