When you need something fast and convenient, why not reach for some instant noodles? But we’re not talking about the food; we’re talking about our Valentine’s Day craft! Print, cut, and assemble for a quick gift you can fill with treats or a personalized note. We also have a black and white option your little ones can color to show off their creativity.

Supplies

  • Printable template
  • Printer or stock paper (white and yellow)
  • Scissors
  • Glue, glue stick, or tape
  • Pen or marker
  • Markers or crayons (optional)
  • Small treats or gifts (optional)

Instructions
Print page 1 on white paper or cardstock. Cut out the inner lid, inner bowl, and bottom. Assemble the inner bowl by affixing the ends together. Glue or tape the inner bowl on top and the bottom at the bottom of the bowl. 

Print page 2 on yellow paper or cardstock. These are your noodles. You can either write notes on them, cut and curl, or both!

Choose your cup design and print page 3, 4, or 5. If you pick the DIY design, color with markers or crayons.

Cut out cup and affix to inner cup. Add noodles to cup. You can also add small treats or gifts.

Add just enough glue so the lid stays in place but not so much that it’s difficult to open.

You’re done!

Happy Valentine’s Day!
