NEO Parent Crafting with Kids: Paper Heart Wreath

Spread the love with this quick and easy Valentine’s Day decoration!

Materials:

Paper (cardstock or construction)

Paper plate

Ribbon/String

Scissors

Glue Stick/Liquid Glue

Optional additional materials: markers or crayons, glitter/glitter glue, Valentine themed scrapbook paper

Steps:

Start by drawing and cutting out 15-20 hearts from the construction paper/cardstock or Valentine themed scrapbook paper. The hearts can be a variety of sizes but should be no larger than your child’s hand.

 Next, cut out the inner part of the paper plate leaving the outer rim intact. You will be using the outer rim for this heart wreath craft. Younger kids may need help with this step or getting started.

Glue hearts onto the paper plate until you feel like you have enough hearts on your heart wreath. Don’t be afraid to overlap the hearts to make the wreath fuller. 

Once you have finished gluing hearts, carefully flip your wreath over and glue your ribbon to the top so you can hang it up.

Optional step: Add glitter and/or write little messages on the hearts before gluing onto the paper plate.
