Our church does a children's time sermon right before our pastor gives his sermon. Since it is right before Valentine's Day...I'm having the children come forward for the "message" on 1 John 3:16-18 Let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth. They are making their own Valentine's during the "big" sermon today. I've given them a ziplock baggie with all the supplies they need to make a few valentines. I even gave them a little print out of some people in the church who need a valentine and a suggestion to make/give a valentine to a lost friend. Here's how I did it...
I bought a tiny heart craft cutter at Hobby Lobby for $3.99. I cut construction paper and foil for the tiny hearts. I kept the strips and they can also re-use those on their valentines as a border.

I even made baggies with all boy colors.
I found a free printable valentine's card template at www.familyfun.com . I also put blank cards in there so they could make their own.
I am also putting a valentine rock in their bag to give to someone special. I modged podged a paper heart cut out on a rock...super easy...colors for both boys and girls.
After it was all said and done we had tons of foam heart valentines stickers left from previous years, so I added some to their bags to help with their decorating.
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!
