SOAR
Happy Valentine’s Day!
There’s a cute spot for a fill-in-the-blank puzzle, neatly disguised in the heart design so it’s easy to guess, but adds another fun aspect to the card. Kids surprisingly like easy, simple to solve puzzles best!
All you have to do in print out the airplane valentines on cardstock.
Each sheet will make enough for 8 valentine cards to pass out. So in most cases you’ll only need 3-4 sheets of cardstock to make enough valentine’s day cards for the whole class.
You then attach a mini foam airplane. We used this really cute airplanes set which has 48 gliders for a steal!
You can first assemble the airplane and tape it to the back of the card using a piece of washi tape. You’ll want to use washi tape as it will keep from ripping the airplane or card when they pull it off. This option works best if you are planning valentines for a preschool or young kids as they will otherwise need assistance putting their foam flyer together.
Another option is to simply staple the foam flier still in it’s plastic wrap. This is a good idea for older kids that would like assembling and in classroom settings with a lot of kids.
Either way works great and results in an excited, and happy, kiddo who just can’t wait to fly the airplane!

Very cute and perfect for little boys! With so many schools now not allowing candy Valentine's, you've got to become more creative and these are perfect. Visiting from Inspiration Monday party.

That's such a cool idea. I used to love making paper airplanes but never tried to make my own foam ones. May do just that part of the craft!
