VALENTINE CRAFT IDEAS
Romantic Rocks
This is an activity and craft for the whole family to grab hold of. Find heart-shaped rocks out in the wild and then tame them at home.
CRAFT MATERIALS:
Heart shaped rocks
Paint
Newspaper towels
- Search for heart-shaped rocks in the rockiest places near you: a stream bank, a driveway, the parking lot. They don’t have to be perfect, as long as they have the two telltale lobes of a heart and some sort of point at the bottom.
- Clean them and let them dry on newspaper or a paper towel.
- Now it is time to get creative! Set everyone to work painting the rocks.
- add Valentine message, quotes, names of kids…
Bighearted Hello
CRAFT MATERIALS:
Scissors
Red card stock
Hole punch
Heavy red yarn (we used chenille)
Tacky glue
40-millimeter googly eyes
Markers
White paper or card stock Scotch tape
- Cut 1 large heart and 4 smaller ones (ours were 5 1/2 inches and 1 1/4 inches across) from the red card stock. Or use our template.
- Punch 4 holes in the large heart and 1 in each of the smaller hearts.
- Cut two 12-inch lengths of yarn, then thread each piece in through an armhole and out through a leg hole. Tie on the hands and feet. (use scotch tape to help keep yarn in place as needed)
- Glue on the googly eye, then draw on eyelashes and a smile.
- Write your message on a small piece of the white paper, then glue it to one of the hands. Suggested messages:
• I’ve got my eye on you!
• We see eye to eye
• Eye’m glad you’re my friend
