Materials

• Template valentine card
• Cardstock
• Paper cutter and/or scissors
• Pencil/ Eraser
• Double-sided tape or sticky dots
• Yo-Yos*

*The ones we used are from Seedling.

Directions

• Print out the cards on cardstock. (We recommend a few extra.)

• Cut them out using a paper cutter with an adult and/or scissors.

• Write your name on the line (following “From:”), using a pencil. Write your friend or classmate’s names on the “To:” line.

• Attach your yo-yo with strong double sided tape or sticky dots in between the “X”s to make an “O”. (We used 2 dots per yo-yo.)

• Give your card to a friend!

Purpose

• Creating exciting materials for written communication.
• Celebrating our friends, neighbours, classmates etc.

Safety Notes

• Use scissors or a paper cutter with care and direct adult supervision.  Depending on your child’s age and abilities this may be a job for the parent only to do in advance.
• An eraser can be a choking hazard, be sure to keep it out of the reach of children 0-3 years of age.
