These types of celebrations are a perfect excuse to spend entertaining times with our kids doing manual work. If you want to decorate your house in a special way to celebrate family love, we give you some Valentine's craft ideas to do with children.
Hearts are beautiful at any time of the year, so get down to work to fill your home with color.

A fun craft and very easy to do are some heart shaped finger puppets. You only need a cardboard (preferably, in pink, red, fuchsia or purple), markers, scissors and eye stickers.
A trick: to make the holes, first form the eyelets with a hole punch and then grind them with the help of a fine-tipped scissors.
Owls with rolls of toilet paper

One of the projects that I liked the most to do for Valentine's Day are these beautiful owls with rolls of toilet paper. You need patterned papers for the body of the owl and cards for the wings, the beak and the eyes, also glue, eye stickers and a ribbon to hang them.
They are very nice and can be ideal for decorating a lamp or door handles, for example. To know how to do them step by step you can visit the Happy Clippings website.

In Color me Katie give us a nice idea to fill our house with color paint stones with hearts.
All you have to do is collect some stones, as flat and smooth as possible. Once you have selected the best you just have to paint them with a bright background color and let them dry well. Some you can leave them with their original color.
When they are completely dry, outline the heart with a pencil and then paint it with a contrasting color. Use acrylic paint.
A heart shaped kite

This project reminds me of Mexican piñatas and I think it's the most colorful to decorate a children's room.
You need a flexible cane or similar material that serves as a structure, red and fuchsia tissue paper, thread, cutter, scissors and glue. In My Poppet you have the step-by-step photos to make your heart-shaped Valentine's kite.
Hanging hearts on the window

I also found them beautiful, because of the play of lights they make in the window, these hanging hearts decorated with wool. In addition, they are very simple to do, so you can have a few ready in one afternoon.
You will need a flexible wire to make the heart shape (it can be one of those used in florist or get it in a DIY store) and then comes the most fun, dress them. It is only about surrounding the heart with wool several times in different ways.
Remember to leave a long piece of wool at the end to hang your heart wherever you like. It is an idea of the Shelterness blog where you will find more details.
I hope you liked our proposals of Valentine's crafts to make children. Take advantage of the weekend to get to work.
