KISSES Candy Grams

Let’s start with a classic goodie bag. This is a super easy way for kids to put together Valentine’s treats for classmates or a party. Adding personalized messages to printable candy gram templates is an easy way to make a bag of HERSHEY’S KISSES Milk Chocolates extra special.

Instructions

• Cut the tags out and write a message on the back of each one.

Heart Pencil Toppers

If you’re looking for something a little more involved than the standard goodie bag, you can try these heart shaped pencil toppers instead. You can make them together as treats for classmates, or as a special Valentine’s surprise. Just craft a heart-shaped template and then cut construction paper to match the heart shaped doilies and REESE’S Peanut Butter Hearts.

Instructions

• Create a template for your heart-shaped pencil topper using a piece of scrap paper.
• Place the template on top of construction paper, trace and cut out several hearts.
• Glue the doilies to the back of your hearts, being careful to leave an empty space at the bottom for a pencil to slip through.
• Use an adhesive dot to attach a REESE'S Heart, then put the pencil topper onto a pencil.
