These Valentine’s Day gifts are the perfect way to show appreciation for your favorite teacher this Valentine’s Day.
The twins’ are having their class Valentine’s Day parties today. We made fun treats to share with the class, and Valentine’s for them to place into their friend’s mailboxes, but I wanted to make something special for each of the teachers too, so we bought each a plant, and made these Valentine’s Day cards to go with them.
Note: This project was originally created for Hewlett Packards’ MyPrintly website however that site is currently offline. You can still find some of the MyPrintly projects on the HP YouTube channel.
