Adorable Paper Valentine Pouch. Perfect for School Valentine Parties.
AdorableValentine Pouch Paper Craft Project
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. It is a celebration of love that is marked with gifts of cards, flowers and candy. Kids as well as adults have a good time this day.
Children in my area of the country have Valentine celebrations at school and have to bring small Valentine cards to distribute to their classmates. The children always look forward eagerly to these events.
As a former Room Mom, I myself participated in many of these parties when my children were in elementary school.
They were always a lot of fun, and I have many fond memories of these school celebrations. Room Moms always planned these parties thus giving the teachers a break. Part of the job of being a Room Mom was to provide games, treats and small gifts for the children for all holiday events.
Our children are small for a short period of time. The little details of love shown by crafting and participating in school events will build memories that they treasure for life. Taking the time to participate in your children's lives will help to strengthen family connections and will build fond memories that they will cherish. Trust me, you will be glad you took that extra time to connect with your child!
This heart shaped paper pouch craft is perfect as a party favor. It can be filled with candy, small Valentine cards or whatever you wish! You can add stickers or tags to the pouches for personalization. Don't forget to make one for the teacher too!
Get as creative as you wish! These hearts are economical and very easy to make.
If you have a digital die cutter you can cut them out for an entire classroom in no time.
