I am not a Pinterest mom. Or a craft mom. Sure, I love a cute birthday party, but DIY anything usually takes more time than I’m willing to spend on anything. And Valentine’s Day isn’t one of my favorite holidays. But – I wanted to do something special for my daughter’s first year of preschool a few years back. And with what I do for work (this blog) I thought offering some free Valentine’s printables would be fun for everyone. I’ve included one candy and a few non-candy valentines which I’m a big fan of. From bubbles to crayons and bracelet kits, these free Valentines are so easy and are sure to be a huge hit.

These Valentine’s cards are such a fun and easy way to do something special for the kids in your life. If your DIY skill level is a 0-1, you can do this, and these are a great activity to do with your kids. Making Valentine’s helps develop creativity, fine motor skills, and communication skills. This is a fun way to spend tie with your kids, and it gives them a sense of accomplishment. The most time-consuming part was making the actual printables which you won’t have to do since I did that for you. Just download, print, and cut (I recommend using a paper cutter).

For best results, use cardstock and a quality photo printer. And include your kids – this was a fun activity for them, and they loved playing with the extra washi tape. I created different designs, so there’s something for almost everyone, and even some simple designs for older children. They were so much fun to make, and are great to bring to a class Valentine’s Day party.

I love these printable cards, and they’re perfect for adding some crayons or a gel pen for something fun and creative. This is a cute valentine for little kids, and a fun way to give a little favor or thoughtful gift that kids can actually use, and one that won’t get thrown away. Consider adding a toy car, ring pops, or mini dough jar. 

These little bracelet tubes (don’t worry, they’re plastic) are a great way to give a cute little gift to friends this Valentine’s Day. My daughters love making bracelets, and I like that the beads are something kids will actually enjoy using. The beads are also a fun Valentine’s Day activity for a Valentine’s party. 

If you’re looking to make a Valentine with something sweet, I love Wiley Wallaby licorice and used my two favorite flavors, which happen to be very on-brand for Valentine’s Day. Just fill a clear bag with licorice, conversation hearts, or your favorite sweet treats. These little bags are great for candy, small treats, and toys.

These free Valentines are perfect for glow sticks or bubble wands. You could even do dot markers, but those would be a bit pricier, and I was going for budget-friendly here.

What I used to make these DIY Valentine’s

I used this photo printer 

The HP Tango is a sleek, compact printer that seamlessly connects to your smartphone. This printer makes it incredibly easy to print high-quality photos, documents, and projects from anywhere in your home.

Card stock

I used regular card stock, which worked fine for most projects. But if you can find a thicker version, it will give your prints and designs a more polished, professional feel.

Paper cutter

A sharp, easy-to-use paper cutter ensures clean, straight edges for all your party crafts. It’s a great tool to have for cutting invites, tags, or other decorations.

Heart shaped hole punch

This adorable hole punch adds a fun, whimsical touch to your party crafts. It’s perfect for creating confetti, tags, or embellishments that match the theme.

Bakers twine

Bakers twine is a versatile and charming way to tie up party favors. You can also use it to hang decorations, or even add a cute touch to gift bags.

Washi tape

Washi tape is a decorative and easy-to-use tape that comes in a variety of patterns and colors. It’s ideal for adding a personal touch to party invitations, banners, or photo booth props.

Plastic test tubes

These clear plastic test tubes make perfect containers for fun DIY bracelet kits. 

Beads

The beads are not only adorable but come in various shapes, colors, and sizes. They are perfect for creating personalized bracelets or adding decorative touches to party favors.

Elastic string

This stretchy elastic string is essential for crafting bracelets that kids will love.

Cellophane bags

These clear, crisp cellophane bags are ideal for packaging treats. 

Bubble wands

Bubble wands are a fun and interactive party favor, adding a playful touch to your celebration’s activities.

Crayons

Crayons make a simple yet thoughtful party favor that sparks creativity and fun for kids of all ages. They’re perfect for keeping little hands entertained with coloring sheets or as a playful addition to any themed party goodie bag.

Licorice

Licorice is a classic, sweet treat that makes for a great party favor or snack.

With your printable PDF, you’ll also get some small heart printable tags in different styles and some blank cards (with cute/fun graphics) too. I’m telling you – this was the perfect easy activity for my girls, and they had so much fun helping. Get the kids involved and have some fun. But also, if you choose to buy store bought, which I know I’ll do as the kids get older, that’s great, too. I love that these are technically homemade valentines, but it really is a print and done sort of thing.
