Looking for something fun to do on Valentine’s Day with your preschool, kindergarten, or even first grade class?  Why not show them how special they are with this Beary Special Valentine’s Day Craft?

We give you the bears in two different sizes.  We did this because we started this craft with the intent of it going on a handled bag to collect valentines for a preschool class.  I liked the idea of them being on these thicker, sturdier bags.  But I realized that many teachers may want to use lunch bags and so I shrunk the craft so it fits better there as well.

And then because we know that teachers like options, we also gave it to you where you can easily print on color construction paper OR print on white paper to color, cut, and glue.

And this is just one of the many resources we have for Valentine’s Day on Simply Kinder (click here to see them all).  Need some videos for Valentine’s Day?  Click here for our Valentine’s Day Video list.
