Cassie Caraway came up with a healthy way to express her affections. The Osceola, Nebraska, first-grader polled her classmates about their favorite fruits, then wrapped up a collection of vitamin-rich valentines -- apples, oranges, and bananas -- each with a juicy pun attached.

Prep Time: Under 1 hour
What you need:
 Apples, oranges, or bananas
Cellophane candy or gift bags (available at craft or party supply stores)
Decorative ribbon
Scissors
Card stock
Marker
Hole punch
Seasons: Valentine's day
Materials: cellophane, fruit
Instructions:
1.Place a piece of fruit in a cellophane bag and tie it closed with a length of ribbon.
2.Cut a heart from the card stock and add a message. Or use our template.
3.Punch a hole in the heart, slip it onto the ribbon, and tie a knot to keep the note in place, if needed.


Suggested messages:
  • "Orange" you glad it's Valentine's Day?
  • You're the apple of my eye!
  • I go bananas over you, valentine!



    Note: Banana skins can turn brown and mushy if exposed to extreme temperatures. If you think this could happen before your child gets to exchange the Valentine, we recommend giving a non-perishable love note.
