“You Rock” Valentine Craft – Makes the perfect class gift for Valentines Day
“Rocking” is big here in Central Florida, so I thought this was a super fun and easy craft to do with the kids that could also be used as a great gift for the kids in their classes. One of the best things about preschool and elementary school, is the Valentines boxes that they create to collect the class Valentines. So this year, skip the store bought Valentines and give them something a little different with these adorable “You Rock” Valentines Day gifts. *This post contains an affiliate link, which if clicked may result in a small commission for the blog. We did this last year for Mason’s class and it was a huge hit plus we had a ton of fun putting them together. Wanna add candy to it? It’s easy! Just use a hole punch to punch a hole in the candy wrapper and then thread the string thru it to attach to the rock.
Materials:
Smooth round stones
Red paint
White paint
Paintbrushes
Black string or twine
“You Rock” Valentine printable
Instructions:
Begin by coating the stones in a layer of red paint. You can use any craft paint, but we chose chalk paint because it dries quickly.
When the stones have dried, use a paintbrush to paint arrows and hearts on alternating rocks.

Punch a hole in one end of each Valentine.
Thread a piece of black string or twine through each Valentine, and tie it around each stone.
This is such a cute idea! Very cleaver! I wish I had a class of children to make this for! But I guess I’ll have to settle with my family if I can’t come up with something better. Thank you so much for sharing!
These are so cute! Makes me wish I had a little one in school right now.
These are such awesome valentines! My kids are older but sometimes my daughter still passes valentines out to friends.
I love this rock idea. They are so darn cute.
This is such a cute idea. My son is now too old for Valentine’s Day parties at school. It makes me sad since he is my last child.
My kids love painting rocks! This is such a great idea and better than store bought cards for their classmates.
That is such a lovely idea. My son loves arts and crafts. This would be a lovely themed activity for him to enjoy.
Wow! That was a really amazing and wonderful idea! So perfect thanks for sharing this with us!
This is so cute! We will have a lot fun making these!
That is cute and seems easy enough, love the pun!
This is so cute and perfects this coming Valentine’s Day! It’s good as I’m saving some Valentine’s Day activities.
What an adorable idea. I had fun preparing my son’s class Valentine’s when he was in grade school.
I love the rock idea. So, when my son was younger, I loved preparing his valentines for his class at the time.
I have come across them before. Such fun finds. The first one we brought home and rehid later. The second one we left for someone else to find. Such a cute idea.
