Valentines Day Craft Ideas for Kids

Make these fun crafts with your kids on Valentines Day

Sweet Treat Table

Surprise your children with a sweet treat table. Keep it simple with a few favorite snacks and candies, or for a more extravagant display, use fresh flowers and create a handmade centerpiece. To achieve this look, start by placing the largest greenery on the bottom layer in a circle around the table. Next layer varying types of greenery on top of the first layer in shorter widths to achieve the final look. Next add Valentines Day mini cupcakes, chocolate dipped Oreos, and Valentine's Day cookies for an inviting sweet treat table.

Valentines Tree
To create this easy and eye-catching centerpiece, collect fallen branches and paint them white. We used a thrifted, repurposed white ceramic jar to assemble the  branches in for the base. Use a floral foam to stabilize the branches, and place moss at the top of the jar. You can use this homemade tree for any occasion as it’s sturdy, and just about anything can be hung on it.


Valentine’s Day Ornaments
Create heart ornaments to hang on your Valentines Tree Centerpiece. These ornaments can be used as clue cards for a kids Valentine's Day scavenger hunt. Instruct children to find their picture on the tree and hunt for the hidden treasure in the house. We used recycled shipping boxes to create the heart base and painted them red. We then used a hole punch to create a lace-like edge to complete the look.
