These mermaid candy huggers are a sweet way to say happy Valentine’s Day. Craft them as a fun surprise for your littles — or your kiddos can join in on the crafting fun! For a non-candy valentine, you can always wrap your mermaid’s hands around a cutout heart, a small and cute school supply like a pencil or magnet, or some other little toy.

You will only need a few simple crafting tools and some paper to make your mermaid candy huggers. We have linked everything we used below, but feel free to use whatever you prefer or have on hand. For more mermaid fun, check out our mermaid party decorations and our mermaid crown. Happy crafting! ~ Lia and team
