And one way to help kids show that love ⏤ not to mention get into the Valentine’s Day spirit ⏤ is by giving them a fun, doable (read: not crazy complicated) creative project, preferably one that can also be given as a gift to a parent. But what’s the absolute best thing a kid could make their parent for Cupid’s big day? A caterpillar made of hearts, perhaps? A giant paper hug? An intricate molten lava cake with a dark chocolate drizzle and powered-sugar finish. All fine choices. But none are as fantastic a homemade Valentine’s Day gift as this ‘I Love You This Much Hands’ card. Not only does it convey a fun expression most kids and parents use often, but as a project it’s straightforward, can be done in about 20 minutes (or longer if you’d like to kill more time), and involves minimal materials. Here’s how you can help them make it. What You’ll Need:

Colorful construction paper (make sure it is colored on both sides), about 3 to 5 pieces in case of mistakesScissorsRulerStick-on letters and/or a SharpieMarkers, stamps, crayons, or stickers for decoratingGlue (glue stick or regular glue)
