15+ Creative Classroom Valentines
It dawned on me recently that since my kids are now in a classroom with 20+ other kids (as opposed to being homeschooled and only seeing their friends a few times a week), exchanging Valentines is a required reality this year (versus a nice concept but optional in years past). So I started searching Pinterest and Swagbucks for some ideas of creative classroom Valentines that would go well with my kids’ personalities without costing a lot of money or taking a lot of time to assemble. Here are a few favorites I found…
Creative Classroom Valentines

These are perfect for my first-grade son to share with his class: he loves learning about bugs, and the easy assembly of this free printable and inexpensive plastic bug toys make this a Valentine he can put together by himself!
You’re Such a Smartie!
