DIY Valentine’s Day Cards for Kids:

Kids DIY Valentines Card with cut-out hearts and red glitter

Let the kids get creative! Start out with your choice of a blank photo folder or a blank photo card. This fun DIY Valentine’s Day Card activity for kids can be done at home, in the classroom, or even at daycare. You’ll want to choose a blank paper photo folder or blank photo card to accommodate your print size.

If you have a parent volunteer available, have them snap a picture of each student with their phone so you can print it off at school or through a photo processing service.

Or Instant print cameras are a fun solution—just snap a photo of each child and watch as the camera instantly prints it out! We also have paper frames for Fuji Instax or Polaroid instant camera prints.

Next, let the kids decorate their DIY Valentine’s card with:

  • Stickers
  • Rubber stamps
  • Crayons, markers, or colored pencils
  • Tissue paper (just use a dab from a glue stick)
  • Sequins and glitter
  • Pre-cut paper hearts

Once they’re done decorating, add a printed photo or drawing to your photo card or paper frame.

Finally, have each student write a special message or Valentine’s Day poem inside the card. Let the card dry and seal it up safely in an envelope for the safe journey home from school. Photo card envelopes can be purchased separately here. Please refer to the matching envelope style on your product page.
