This art project comes with a template that can be used when working with young children or children who need confidence in creating art.

Simple Art for Valentine’s Day

What you need:

  • sample (optional)
  • drag
  • art supplies (we like watercolors)
  • black marker (optional)
  • glue
  • a sheet of construction paper (black works great, other colors will work too)

Step by step instructions

Print out the form.

You can use regular printer paper, although we find that thicker printer paper prints better.

Color the pattern.

Watercolors will work really well for this project; however, they are not the only art supplies your child can use. Crayons, pencils, markers, fingerprints… Let your child’s imagination run wild.

You don’t have to stick to just one medium. Have your child layer different art supplies (like white crayons and watercolors). Your child can color each heart with a different medium.

You can also ask your child to add patterns and/or textures to the heart.

Drawing different patterns for the heart shape with black marker on watercolor will be very beautiful.

Once your child is happy with their heart shape, ask them to cut the heart out.

Prepare cardboard. We chose black because it makes the heart shape stand out.

Take the first heart (it doesn’t matter which one) and glue the back.

Stick the heart shape on the paper, wherever you want.

Repeat with all the other hearts, sticking them side by side, on top of each other, on top of each other. Go with the flow and place them however you see fit.

Done! Your Valentine’s Day artwork is complete.

It would make a beautiful classroom decoration, spread love from the fridge or even make a beautiful Valentine’s card!
