How to Make Heart Hot Air Balloon Valentines
I love paper bag crafts and the bags worked perfectly for our heart hot air balloon! It’s a really cute Valentine’s day craft for kids to make on a budget.
I think they would look so cute if you glued a string on the back and hung them all over the classroom or your home! Download the heart template here to print.

Glue one side of one folded heart to the side of another heart. Repeat for all 3.

Unfold the hearts and you should now have a 3D heart.
