Valentine's Day Crafting: Start With A Valentine's Day Tree!
I love creating paper snowflakes and paper hearts! This activity was initially created by Julia of Roots of Simplicity for Kids Activities Blog a million years ago when it was known simply as Quirky Momma. It's perfect for your preschooler, or kids of any age, and is a fun way to work on fine motor skills like cutting and folding paper.

Depending on what you decide to do with your "heart snowflakes", this is what you'll need:
- Fallen branches (or a tree outdoors to decorate!)
- Office paper scraps
- Colored construction paper
- Scissors
- Vase for indoor version
How Do I Make A Valentine's Day Tree Craft?
Let's start with making the paper hearts!
- Fold paper in half and cut 1/2 a heart on the fold to create hearts.
- Next, fold the heart several more times, and clip and snip corners and folds to create unique hearts.
- Fasten the hearts to the branches you gathered and place them in your vase.
Isn't this just a beautiful table-top decoration? A Valentine's Day tree is a really cute centerpiece for your classroom or family Valentine's Day celebration, and easy to make for kids of all ages!
Fasten any leftover hearts to tree branches in your yard!
