Bag Filler Ideas
Bunny Card: Annie’s Bunny Crackers or Annie’s Bunny Fruit Snacks. You can buy the individual snack packs and staple to the card stock. Or a frugal alternative would be to buy 1-2 boxes of the crackers and portion out some crackers into the small plastic bags then staple to the card stock.
Color/Art Card: You can tape the free Valentine’s Day printable to a small pack of crayons. Or buy a large box of crayons and portion out a sample size into each plastic bag to then staple to the card stock. Small bottles of paint, fun stamps, or even colorful stickers would work well for this too!
Donut Card: You can buy small individual packs of mini donuts, purchase a larger pack of mini donuts to individually portion out, or even use donut cereal to portion into the plastic bags.

Free Valentine’s Day Printable Cards for Kids!
Step 1 – Print
Go ahead and download your free Valentine’s Day printable. Choose just one design or print them all!
Step 2 – Cut & Fold
After printing the graphics, you’ll want to cut out each card, eliminating the light-gray edges. Once the cards are all cut out, fold each card in half. All edges should line up.
Step 3 – Fill Bag & Attach Card
Now it’s time to fill each bag. See above for ideas on how to fill each treat bag! And this could be a fun activity to do together with your child to get them involved in serving their classmates. After filling the bags, seal them. Then staple or tape the appropriate card to the bag. If stapling, make sure that the bag is stapled between the front and back halves on the card.
Step 4 – Personalize
Finally, add the finishing touch with your child’s name to the back of the card. If your child is old enough, have them write their own name and the name of the recipients for a personalized touch!
We hope you and your kids will love these free Valentine’s Day printables! Be sure to make this February 14th special and tell someone how much they mean to you.
