Last week, I shared with you all my Top Ten Valentines Day Crafts for Kids via Pinterest {according to me}. I promised to share my favorite Valentines for kids this week! With Lincoln in preschool this year, I’m a bit excited about all the “school” things I get to do with him. In all honesty, I’m probably more excited than he is, because he still doesn’t quite “get it” yet. I was really thrilled when I received the notice that his class would be having a Valentine’s Day party. The teachers requested the kids to bring in valentines for all their friends. Seriously adorable, right?!
I knew I wanted to do something a bit different, rather than go to Target and buy a box of valentines and call it a day. I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with that, or that I won’t necessarily do that in the future, but I wanted something else. So I turned to good ol’ Pinterest to see what I could come up with…
TOP TEN VALENTINES FOR KIDS

How incredibly creative are these Cars inspired valentines?! What car-loving kid wouldn’t flip over receiving a McQueen or Mater valentine? I originally was going to do this for Lincoln’s class, but then I quickly realized it would be a bit work, and I’d be doing mostly the entire thing. But they sure are cute!

Recycled crayons in the shape of a heart, surrounded by a valentine. I really need to do this with all of Lincoln’s broken crayons.

“I mustache you a question. Will you be my Valentine?” Can be made with either a mustache, or lips! Kids will think these are hysterical….and so will adults ๐

This was another Valentine I almost chose for Lincoln’s class. Even though there are 3 girls, what girl wouldn’t want her own matchbox car?! I know I played cars with my brother when I was a kid. Although we decided on something else, I think this is a great idea!

Butterfly lollipop valentines. I figured because a few of my valentine ideas are mostly “boy inspired,” I’d throw one in for the girlies ๐

I just love how these came out. I ordered these printable valentines from etsy, and just stapled them on the top of an individual bag of goldfish! I am really happy with how they came out, and Lincoln is so excited to give them to his friends at school.
