My evenings are pretty packed, this week, I must confess. My child has been busy with her craft supplies, colours and coloured papers and has been asking me to help her with ideas to make delightful Valentine’s day cards that she can hand over to me on February 14th. (Yes- kids are that innocent!)
So I have sat down, and browsed through a zillion ideas, some too easy, some way too difficult for the lazy mom in me and some unbelievably cute! I have made it easier for you by putting them down in a curated list, so you don’t have to waste time. Try these easy-to-make Valentine’s Day cards with your kids and find them hand them over to the family, teachers and friends with joy and smiles in their little hearts!
