Making Pop-Up Valentine's Day Cards With Your Kids

Video transcription

In this clip, you’ll see the first steps into making a popup Valentine’s Day card. The materials need are scissors, glue or stapler, markers or crayons, at least 1 full sheet of construction paper, and some scrap pieces of paper, preferably Valentine’s Day colors like pink and red. The first step is to decorate your card. So you’ll fold your paper in half. You can use crayons, makers, glitter, paint, or whatever you’d like to decorate. I’m just going to use markers in the inside. Go ahead and decorate one side; the other side is where we’re going to have it pop out. The next step, after you’ve finished decorating your card, is to make a heart. Make sure it’s not too big, because you do have to have it fit inside the card. Cut it out, and you’ll be ready to make it pop out.
