However, as the day approaches, you may be looking for alternatives to those sugary sweets. With a little bit of creativity, you can make this Valentine\u2019s Day special for your preschooler, but with less sugar. Here are just a few ideas that can get you started if you want to give your preschooler a sugar-free valentine:<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Crayon Craftiness<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are endless options for valentines that do not require candy. Have you already accumulated a myriad of broken crayons? Broken crayons can be melted into various shapes and placed inside of baggies for your preschooler\u2019s valentine. Staple on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/innerchildfun.com\/2011\/01\/easy-crazy-crayon-party-favors.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">cardstock<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> saying, \u201cI\u2019m crazy for you,\u201d and you are done! Be sure to not let your preschooler handle hot, melted crayons.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Magnificent Magnification<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For another idea, look no further. \u201c<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/aprettyhappyhome.com\/2015\/02\/11\/magnifying-glass-valentines-card-free-printable\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I\u2019ve had my eye on you<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">,\u201d uses cardstock, a magnifying glass, bag, and a stapler. There are many things a preschooler would enjoy seeing larger, so this valentine is sure to be a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">big<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> hit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Doh Delight<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201c<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/the-wilson-world.blogspot.com\/2012\/01\/play-doh-valentines-with-printable.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Doh<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201d you need more ideas? Preschoolers often love Play-Doh. You could buy a mixed pack of Play-Doh or purchase individual tubs. Print out the cute \u201cDoh you want to be my Valentine?\u201d onto sticker paper, cut into 2 inch circles, and affix the sticker to the top of the Play-Doh lid.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Popcorn Party<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If your preschooler really wants to take food as his valentine, consider using <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.clubcrafted.com\/diy-printable-popcorn-valentines\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">popcorn<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. This valentine requires microwavable popcorn, pink cardstock, scissors, and tape. Print out the template on cardstock and attach them to the popcorn. This is quick and easy but still delightful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Though it takes some time and a little work, it can be easy and fun to help your preschooler make sugar-free valentines this year. I am sure the candy will not be missed because these valentines are sweet enough on their own.
