Craft Foam Valentine Monsters - Kid Craft

Make adorable and kid friendly Valentine’s Day love monsters with our simple step-by-step tutorial today! Perfect for a school project or craft party.

Craft Supplies:

  • Large Craft Foam Hearts – one per craft, any color you like
  • Cardstock Paper {most importantly white for the fangs!}
  • School Glue
  • Kid Friendly Craft Scissors
  • Plastic Wiggle Eyes
  • Loose Craft Glitter
  • Pipe Cleaners
  • Craft Pom Poms
  • Hand Held Office Stapler
  • optional materials – embellishments like buttons, rhinestones etc.

 Directions:

  • One craft foam heart will make ONE Valentine love monster.
  • Just like you would decorate a face, have children think of how they would decorate their craft foam heart like a monster face.
  • First you will want to bend in half and twist your pipe cleaner for the antennas.
  • Staple it on the top of the craft foam heart, preferably on the back for a seamless look.
  • Next grab your cardstock and scissors.
  • Cut out facial features from it. We did pointy triangular teeth and scallop punched eyes. Children can also cut out funky ears, hair, noses etc.
  • To finish off your Craft Foam Love Monsters, have children glue their cardstock pieces and pom pom noses in place on the front of the craft foam heart.
  • Then have them add any other embellishments they see fit {like a mouth made out of glue and glitter} before setting it aside to let it dry completely.
  • Repeat for each Valentine monster they/you want to make!
  • Remember to encourage children to really add their own crafty spin along the way!!!
  • Don’t forget to share pictures with us on your social media sites! #gluedtomycrafts
