Every single one of my boys has gone through a dinosaur phase where EVERYTHING they wore, played with or ate (Can you say Dino-nuggets?) had to have a Dinosaur or it just wasn’t going to work for them.

If you have a Dinosaur fan in your home, these Dinosaur Valentines are “Dino-mite!” (See what I did there? )

Easy Dinosaur Valentines

It’s that easy! Your child can take their dinosaur valentines to school and pass them out. I love having my kids write each person’s name on them if their teacher allows them to do that. It is a great way to get them to practice spelling and hand-writing.

But if not, just make sure they have enough for each person in their class or friend from school that they are wanting to give them to. I also throw an extra in for the teacher because my boys always LOVE giving their teacher a little something as well. And we all know how DINO-MITE our teachers are!
