4 Clever Ways to Make Lollipop Valentines with Zollipops

Valentine's Day is just around the corner, and nothing says "I like you" quite like a handmade card and some sweet treats. I imagine, however, that the other 25 students in my daughter's class will show up prepared to exchange a plethora of sugary goodies, so we plan to curb the cavities with a healthy alternative to the traditional lollipop: Zollipops!

Zollipops are considered The After You Eat Treats® because they're actually good for your teeth! These tasty fruit-flavored morsels are sugar-free, nut-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, and kosher, making them a great option for the classroom. As an added bonus, they're just the right shape for simple Valentine's Day crafts.

So grab your scissors, glue, and a bag of your favorite lollipops to get started.

1. Sweet Bouquet

Roses are red, violets are blue, lollipops are sweet, and so are you.

Supplies needed:

Colorful construction paper for flower petals - any color or style!
Green construction paper for leaves
Glue

How to: Cut assorted flower and leaf shapes. Glue them to your lollipops. It's that simple!

2. Cheerful Balloons

Take your Valentine's Day to new heights with this simple, uplifting design.

Supplies needed:

Option 1: Blue paper and white paint - to make a sponge-painted cloudy sky
Option 2: Construction paper & coloring utensils to design your own cloudy sky

How to: Cut out 1 circle (1.5 inch diameter) + 1 tiny triangle for each balloon. Give the balloon dimension by drawing on a reflection (a curved triangle).
