How to make Tic Tac Toe Valentines (+19 Candy Free Valentines!)
Tic Tac Toe Valentines are a creative, non-candy option. This quick and simple Tic Tac Toe Valentine card - along with 19 more candy-free Valentines - are simple and sweet (without the sugar!).
These little Tic Tac Toe Valentines turned out too cute... and they are right up my son's alley. He is a big fan of Tic Tac Toe games (it's our go-to boredom buster while waiting at restaurants). So, it makes sense to share that fun with his friends at Valentine's.

Tic Tac Toe Valentine Supplies
- Tic Tac Toe Valentine Card PDF File
- White Cardstock
- Printer + Ink
- Paper Trimmer (or scissors)
- Red Crayons
- Pink Crayons
- Heart Washi Tape

#1. Print the Tic Tac Toe Valentine
Print the Tic Tac Toe Valentine Printable near the end of this post onto white cardstock.
#2. Cut the Tic Tac Toe Cards
Use a paper trimmer to cut the tic tac toe cards along the gray borders. If you don’t have a paper trimmer, scissors will work fine (though I’d totally recommend a paper trimmer in your craft supply arsenal — it’s one of the best tools!)

#3. Package the Cards
Next, package the cards in one of several ways:
- Candy Free Valentines / Crayon Valentine: Attach two crayons to the back of the card with washi tape. I think it would be fun to use a combination of red and pink crayons (and yes, you can buy an entire box of the same color!)
- M&M Valentine Tic Tac Toe Game: Attach a small baggie with pink and red M&Ms to play and eat!
#4. Personalize the Cards
If you'd like personalized Valentine cards, rather than having to sign the cards, you can grab a customized version in my Etsy shop.
Candy Free Valentines
Folks, we are still working on the Christmas candy. At Christmas, we were still working on the Halloween candy. All.the.candy. So, for me, as much as I love M&Ms, non-candy valentines are my preferred treat.

I'm glad that this little card comes with only a couple of crayons... instead of a couple of pounds. Are you with me?! If so, here are 19 more candy-free Valentines.
