My girls have always loved Valentine’s Day class parties when they get to give (and receive) a whole bunch of creative kids Valentines cards with little gifts on Valentine’s Day.
Valentine’s school day activities usually involve lots of fun crafts like homemade Valentines full of sweet messages, paper hearts, and sometimes teachers will have the kids decorate a Valentine box with their name on it in creative ways.
But the candy treats and toys that they exchange with cute love cards are the anticipated stars of the show.

I’ve got lots of fun printable Valentines cards for kids and unique designs to add a personal touch to your kids’ special delivery. No need for a bunch of craft supplies, just print and cut.
This post includes all the kids’ Valentine card ideas that use printables that I’ve created over the years. Most contain funny puns and custom fields to add your child’s name.
