You can get as extravagant as you wish…you could include glitter pens, stickers etc. We kept things simple with what we had on hand!

How to make the Preschool Valentines Day Craft

Preschool teacher or mama – cut out heart shapes for your preschooler. I let the girls do two a piece. To make it easy I folded the paper in half and cut out “one side” of the heart which essentially is cutting out the whole heart just making my shape even!
Let the preschooler decorate their silly heart puppet – using glue to attach wiggly eyes and pom pom balls, markers to decorate and make silly faces
Hot glue the popsicle stick to the back of the heart. (You could also tape this on if you didn’t have a hot glue gun)
Cut a 2 thin strips, per puppet, from your left over construction paper from the hearts and accordion fold some silly arms!

These Silly Heart Puppets was adapted Creative Family Fun –> here! She used paint and glitter – which would be tons of fun too, I just wasn’t in the brave mama mode to pull all of that out…we chose to stick to washable markers!!!
