We are in full swing with Valentine’s Day crafting, hoping to bring you some fun ideas! We have tons of cardboard left over from Christmas that I saved for some crafting, so this weekend my daughter and I used some to make a Jeweled Heart Craft. They are so simple and pretty and I incorporated learning about symmetry with my preschooler!

Supplies you will need:
cardboard scissors metallic paint paint brush tacky glue or school glue acrylic crafting jewels (can be found at your local Walmart)
Directions:
Start by cutting a heart out of your cardboard. You decide the size you want.
Use your metallic paint to paint your cardboard hearts. Let them dry completely.
Glue crafting jewels onto your hearts.
I took this craft as a great opportunity to talk about symmetry with my preschooler. After discussing what symmetry is I challenged my daughter to make both sides of her heart look the same with her jewels. This is obviously optional, I just love adding learning concepts into our crafts whenever I can.
