Silly straws that slot into each card
Picture a class party where every kid walks home with a loopy straw poking out of a valentine. Each of the 32 cards shows a cartoon drinking cup. The straw threads right through it, so the two read as one drink. There are 8 card designs and 8 straw designs, so neighbors at the same table rarely end up with matching pairs.
Setup takes one evening on the couch. The holes come already punched, so your kid just pushes a straw through and writes a friend's name on each card. The straws are 10.6 inches tall against a card of about 5.1 inches, which means they stick out of a paper bag, so plan on a box or a tote for the trip to school.
The Crazy Straw Valentine Cards sits on the Valentine's Day shelf of the Oriental Cherry holiday range.
