DLTK's Bible Crafts for Kids
Valentine's Day Angel Paper Craft  
"Let us Love one another, for love comes from God."

This craft includes your choice of a template with a message or one that's blank.  You can use the blank template and allow the children to print in their own Valentine's message.

Read a bit about DLTK's Grow With Me Craft Concept to get some ideas on how this basic craft idea can be used with different materials to make it appropriate for everyone from ages 2 thru 82!

Alternative:  Scotch tape a straw or popsicle stick to the bottom to make a puppet!

Materials:

• printer
• paper
• scissors
• glue
• something to color with (if using B&W template)

Directions:

• Print template of choice.
   
• Color the template pieces if you are doing the B&W version
   
• Cut out the template pieces (this may require adult assistance -- I usually roughly cut the paper into pieces with one template on each.  Then I give my 3 year old the big ones to work on and I cut out the smaller ones.)
   
• The large piece (dress) is the bottom.  To it, glue (in order):
  1. the heart (right about in the center)
  2. the arms (so the hands overlap the heart)
  3. the wings (on the back)
  4. the head
      
• look at the image of the finished craft if you get stuck (there's a small image of the finished project on the second template of each version).
   

Templates:

• Close the template window after printing to return to this screen.
   
• Set page margins to zero if you have trouble fitting the template on one page (FILE, PAGE SETUP or FILE, PRINTER SETUP in most browsers).
