Fun Valentine’s Day Ideas For Your Little Love Bugs

January 16, 2014

For more Valentine inspiration,  please follow our Pinterest boards for our latest pins or visit our Seasonal tab for all of our Valentine related posts!

 
 

As I started to think of some Valentine’s Day crafts to do with my girls, I realized most of my ideas were “bug related”. We had so much fun making last year’s Valentines for our family, I think I still had “Love Bugs” on my mind.

 

Bee Mine Bumble Bee

How To:

Cut yellow circle, red heart, black triangle, 3 black strips & 2 white ovals out of construction paper. Have children assemble with glue. Finish by glueing on google eyes & writing “Bee Mine” in heart.

 

Love-ly Caterpillar 

How To: 

Cut out a bunch of pink, white & red hearts. Glue onto pink paper in a row. Add a heart at the end for the caterpillar’s head. Glue on google eyes & pipe cleaners antennas.

 

Love Bug Masks

These adorable masks are from Opposite of Far.

 

Fluttering Hearts Butterfly 

How To: 

Cut out 2 red hearts from construction paper folded in half. Have the bottom of the hearts at the paper’s fold so they are attached. Glue paper doilies onto hearts. Glue a popsicle stick in the middle. Then glue on the heart head, eyes & antennas.

DIY Valentine Antenna Headband 

How To: 
Cover a headband using pink ribbon & hot glue. Take a pipe cleaner & twist around the headband so it stands up like an antenna. Glue a heart at the top of the pipe cleaner. Repeat for the other antenna. I used glitter cardstock for the hearts, that I found in the scrapbook section of the craft store.

 

Ladybug Love Bug

How To:

Cut out 6 black legs, a black circle, a red heart  & a large red circle out of construction paper. Have children put together the ladybug’s body with glue. Then, have them glue on google eyes & black pom poms for the spots. Glue the red heart on one of the legs & write “Love Bug”.

For all of the small heart shapes shown in the crafts, I used a heart paper punch. It makes Valentine crafts very easy!
