Every February, men, women and children of all ages prepare for the holiday that involves gift giving, chocolate, carefully designed cards and love: Valentine's Day. Though the holiday itself has a long and torrid history starting somewhere around the beginning of the 19th century, Americans enjoy a version of the holiday that focuses more on gifts and expressions of love than on the religious or more traditional aspects associated with the day. Men woo their ladies with cards, flowers, and various other presents while children typically partake in less expensive versions of expression at school. Through this sort of exchange, kids can learn about giving, sharing, expressing love and thanks as well as picking up a few neat arts and crafts skills along the way. Construction paper, scissors and some markers are about all your kids need to make homemade cards for their friends and family members.
In this free instructional video clip series, our expert will show you some very simple methods for making homemade arts and crafts with your kids for the Valentine's Day holiday. Help your child use simple tools like scissors, markers and paper products to create simple cards for friends. Heart shaped cards, stuffed valentines, card holders and much more are explained and demonstrated for your children to watch and duplicate for their secret crush. Let's just hope the little red-headed girl doesn't forget to check under her desk!
