I enjoy Valentine ideas that don’t involve candy. Sure I remember loving all the loot I came home with from school on the holidays but now I know how my mom must have felt. The boys sit and unwrap every bit of candy they can in a 20 second period and shovel it in their mouth before I can snatch it out of their hands and monitor the sugar intake. Then what do I have? Rambunctious and crazy kids on a downward spiral from their sugar high. I saw a similar printable last year and after finding cute pencils in the Target dollar section I knew I needed to create a Valentine that the boys could take to their preschool class. The best part about this printable is that it works as a teacher Valentine too! Fill up a coffee cup with pencils, pens, and sharpies and you have one awesome teacher gift! Directions:
- Print out the free printable HERE
- Cut out the cards
- Either use an exacto to cut slits for the pencil to slide through or punch a hole in the corner and string twine to use them as a tag.
Enjoy,
I party HERE

I like the above mentioned idea. This is the best idea for kids. They will learn how to make a card, the meaning of love and the best use of resources.
