So we know Valentines day is still almost a month away, but today we want to share a simple craft that is perfect for little ones between one and four! This tissue paper heart is great for both home and classroom art time.
Materials Needed
- White Paper
- Tissue Paper Cut Into Squares
- A Pen or Marker
- Glue
We started by drawing a heart on the white paper.
Next, we covered the heart in glue. We put a bit of extra glue on the outline of the heart.If you are working with a child who is three or four, you can let them put on the glue themselves to keep them interested in the process.
After that, we let our little one put the tissue paper on. We handed her one piece at a time.
The finished project is simple but adorable! It only took about 20 minutes from start to finish, so it is perfect for a busy day!

What a sweet, inexpensive and fun idea! It really is perfect for a busy day!
We worked on a Valentine’s craft today! My son had to have a box decorated for his kindergarten party. I bet my preschooler would love this craft, he has a couple days off of school this week so we are looking for ideas!
The valentines day boxes are so much fun to make!
Ah these are such a sweet idea! They look pretty good too!
This looks like such a fun activity I can do with both my boys! Maybe more my older one, haha. I think Jaxson would want to eat the glue — ick!
This is adorable! What a fun and easy craft that I can do with my niece! -Tonya Morris
