With Valentine's just around the corner, why not spread some love and try out our Valentine's crafts for babies?
Now we know that compared to toddlers, babies are very limited to what crafts they can do, so it goes without saying that all of the below will need quite a lot of help from yourself or another adult. But don't be deterred, getting babies involved with crafts from an early age helps them begin to identify shapes, colour and texture and helps to kickstart their fine motor skills.

All your baby will need to use for this craft is their fingers to create this canvas that any grandparent would be pleased to hang.
2 of 7Clay foot print bowl
Baby's tiny feet sure don't stay small for long and this bowl will ensure you'll always remember how diddy they were. It can be used as a jewellery dish, key bowl or simply as a footprint keepsake ornament.
