These free valentine cards for kids give you Word documents on US Letter and A4, eight cards to a page: a mixed sheet and one sheet each of heart, bee, ladybug, dinosaur, fish and cat valentines, in full colour and as colour-in sheets children can colour themselves. Every template is human-made by a teacher: I’m Patrick Elliott, a teacher and Inclusion Lead, and I designed and built each one myself in Microsoft Word, then printed them to check they line up and fill the page as they should.
In this guide, you’ll find which sheet to print, how to type the names, and how to run a candy-free valentine exchange in class.

What Makes a Good Classroom Valentine?
Classroom valentines are small, kind cards children give to every classmate on 14 February. The most popular ones pair a cute animal with a gentle pun, such as “Bee my Valentine!” or “You’re dino-mite!”, and leave room for To and From. Card-only valentines are candy-free, so they suit classes with food allergies. The heart, bee, ladybug, dinosaur, fish and cat were drawn by Patrick Elliott in PowerPoint, using only shapes, with no clip art and no AI.
Which Valentine Sheet Should You Use?
- Mixed valentine cards: all six designs on one sheet, so every card in the pile looks different.
- Heart, bee and ladybug: “Happy Valentine’s Day!”, “Bee my Valentine!” and “You’re a love bug!”.
- Dinosaur, fish and cat: “You’re dino-mite!”, “You’re o-fish-ally my favorite!” and “You’re purr-fect!”.
- Colour-in sheets: the same cards in outline, for children to colour before they give them out.
- For a class list to tick off, use the checklist templates.
How to Make Classroom Valentines
- Choose your paper size above, download the ZIP and open the sheet you want.
- Count your class and print enough sheets: each sheet makes eight cards.
- Type the names, or let each child write To and From.
- For the colour-in sheets, let the children colour the pictures first.
- Cut along the dashed lines and hand them out on 14 February.
Send a class list home a week before, so every child can make a card for everyone. Print on card stock for cards that last.
Colour-In Versions
Every valentine sheet also comes as a colour-in version: the same cards with outline pictures, so children can colour their own valentines and it saves ink. In the download box, choose Colour, Black and white (the colour-in sheets) or All, then your paper size: US Letter, A4 or both.
How to Print at the Right Size
- Open the template in Word and press Ctrl + P (Cmd + P on a Mac).
- Choose the paper size in the file name: A4 for UK and Australian sheets, US Letter for US sheets.
- Set scaling to 100% or Actual size, not Fit to page.
- Print one sheet and measure a row with a ruler before you print a class set.
Every sheet keeps a 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) margin on all sides, so nothing is cut off on home inkjets, school laser printers or older printers with a wide edge.
