Valentine’s Day is a favorite in our family. What better time to focus on love! All the pink and red crafts are just so cute. 

We recently got through a few Construction Paper Valentine’s Crafts, so I knew these Paper Bag Love Robots would be perfect for my kids. When we’re finished, we’re going to make our own Valentine’s boxes. We might even put a version of these robots on them! 

Paper bag puppets are so fun for kids, too, because they encourage make believe play when they’re finished crafting. Your family is going to love spending time together, working on a fun craft project. 

When you’re done with these robots, our Tissue Paper Valentines Crafts and Toilet Paper Roll Valentines Crafts could be so fun for your family!
