Do you have a Connect Four fan in your house? Then they are going to flip for this fun Valentine that lets every one of their friends have a little game of their own!
For this Valentine you will need:
- the printable found at the end of this post
- Little Connect Four Games (we used these provided by Oriental Trading)
- scissors
- bakers twine
- a single hole punch
Print and cut out the paper valentine. Have you child address them to each child in their class. Using the single hole punch, punch a hole in the corner of each valentine and a hole in the corner of the Connect Four bag. There should be plenty of space to punch a hole above the seal so none of the little pieces fall out.
Tie a piece of bakers twine through the hole in the card and the hole in the Connect Four game.
Stay tuned for more free Valentine Printables in the coming weeks!

Ok, that is just too cute. My kids would LOVE to be the ones bringing this into their classroom next month.
what a creative and very cute idea. It certainly gets kids to interact with another, well that is if they don't eat all the little candies.
such a cute idea! I love the not candy valentine's gifts.
such a cute idea! we can't give candy anymore at school so this works perfectly!
Let's Connect is one of my favorite childhood games. So I am so glad you put in a DIY that makes it extra special for this coming Valentine's. Thanks for sharing!
I used to be OBSESSED with Connect 4 when I was a little girl. I mean, I made EVERYONE play it with me over-and-over-and-over again! I should make your DIY cards for my family members as a gesture of thanks!
I was in love with this game as a kid and my daughter loved it too. I don't think we called it connect 4 in the 70s but maybe we did. Love the valentines!
Aw, what a cute idea! Love it!
And, as a teacher, I appreciate the creativity and thought to give a V-Day card that isn't just about candy!
Oh these are just adorable!!! I am pinning this for sure! My kids would love this!!!

These are so cute. I definitely like to do non-candy Valentines for my kids.
These would be so cute to do for my classroom. Each child would get such a kick out of it. Oriental trading has the best gift ideas for large groups.
