“You Rule” Valentine! Whip up these fun and inexpensive ruler Valentines for your child’s Valentine party with our free printable!
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner – bring on the Valentines! Every year I’m always so amazed at the number of Valentines available at the big box retailers…
But why limit yourself to something that all the other kids will (probably) have, too? Be creative this year and give a fun, non-candy Valentine that’ll be a hit with all kids.
Math teachers everywhere will rejoice – and parents will be thrilled that their kids are coming home with one less box of candy in their backpack! I can’t think of a better reason to celebrate!
Looking for more non-candy Valentine’s? We have you covered!
