After gathering supplies, invite kids to begin placing strips of tape on their hearts. If they have trouble with this step, you could simply pull strips for them and place them on waxed paper.

Excess tape can simply be tucked around the heart or if your child is practicing scissor skills, invite them to cut it off.

Place the tape in straight lines or zig zag lines.

Use a single hole punch to create a hole in the corner of the hearts, then pull a colorful piece of string or yarn through the holes and tie off.
