Thinking of crafty Valentines lately and what to create with my boys this year that would have a cool boy factor. Still working on THIS, but I’ll let you know if I come up with an idea. Meanwhile, I posted this one on Facebook before this blog was ready, so I wanted to share it with you again along with the templates. It’s a simple card that is folded over a healthy fruit snack, held together by a clothespin wrapped with washi tape or a child’s own design.
