Adorable Kid-Friendly Valentine’s Day Ideas


Love is in the air! Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and FamilyFun magazine has new, adorable Valentine-themed snacks for kids to enjoy.

Cookie wands, cupid kebabs and more! Check out the kid-friendly snacks below:

SAY IT WITH SPARKLES! WAVE A WAND

To make the cookie wands, sandwich white frosting and a lollipop stick between two small cookies, such as Lorna Doones. Freeze them for 10 minutes. Heat candy melts with 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil. Dip the cookies in halfway, then sprinkle on edible glitter (find it, plus the sticks and candy melts, at craft stores). Let them set on waxed paper overnight.

RELEASE SOME SHINY SHARKS

These creatures (backed by clothespins for a fully functional Jaws effect) are sure to inspire toothy grins. Start by drawing the shark’s top and bottom halves as shown or tracing our template (get it atfamilyfunmag.com/printables) on glitter card stock. Cut out the halves, then apply tacky glue along one side of a clothespin and adhere them. Place the shark on waxed paper to dry. When the glue is dry, slightly bend one tail section forward so that when the mouth opens, the tail parts smoothly pass one another. Glue on a sequineye. Cut a paper heart (we used pinking shears to trim a “bite”), write your message, and glue the heart to a treat.

CUPID KEBABS

Let your kids make these simple tomato and cheese skewers and they just might fall in love with healthy snacking. Start by diagonally trimming away the ends of two grape tomatoes and trimming small pieces of cheese (we used cheddar) for the arrow parts. Then have your kids assemble the pieces on a toothpick as shown.
