DIY Valentines Day Card

We are on a roll this year! We have made so many different homemade Valentines day cards for everyone and we’re not stopping yet! These cards allow kids to be kind by giving someone else a gift. But they also get to practice fine motor skills and explore colors, different painting techniques, and in this instance… use glitter.
