Cute Printable Korean Valentine’s Day Cards and Coloring Pages
Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, and my kids have been busy making valentines for friends and family! To honor my children’s Korean heritage, we wanted to include Korean Valentine’s Day cards for this loving holiday.
Since my children don’t get much exposure to Korean language, I try to include fun Korean activities to help them feel excited about it. There’s just something so sweet about giving and getting valentines, and I hope your family or school can have fun with these Korean Valentine’s Day cards!

Korean truck valentines for boys and girls
I created these Korean Valentine’s Day cards for my vehicle-loving son and also because many parents have requested more transportation learning activities!
Each of these vehicle valentine’s day cards say 해피 발렌타인 데이 (haepi ballentain dei), which means Happy Valentine’s Day in Korean. Although “Happy Valentine’s Day” can be translated in various ways, this was the most common phrase suggested by our fluent Korean friends and relatives.
To save time, you can cut the truck valentines with a paper trimmer. Color them with your child’s favorite art supplies; we love Lyra Colored pencils or groove triangular coloring pencils! If your kids don’t want to color, print the Korean Valentine’s Day cards on red card stock paper!
Korean heart wands with printable templates
Inspired by my children’s love of collecting sticks and “magic wands”, we made these cute heart wands with Korean phrases. The printable hearts include the following phrases:
- 사랑해 (Salanghae / I love you)
- 뽀뽀 (Ppoppo / Kiss kiss)
- 귀여운 (Gwiyeoun / Cute)
- 친구 (Chingu / Friend)
- 최고야 (Choegoya / You’re the best!)
- 친절한 (Chinjeolhan / Kind)
Detailed instructions, materials, and video tutorial for the Korean Valentine’s Day heart wands are here. Chinese and English translations are also available, too!
Korean Valentine’s Day cards for cat lovers!
Aerilyn Books is a website with many Korean printable activities for young children. The website is entirely in English and geared for parents and caregivers who speak Korean as a second language.
We downloaded these cute kitty cat Korean Valentine’s Day Cards from the Aerilyn Books shop. In the online shop, go to “FREE downloadable worksheets” and search for “Color Your Own Valentines.” You’ll have to add the printables to your cart, and the Korean Valentine’s Day cards will be emailed to you.
After we printed and cut the Korean cards on white paper, we mounted them to colorful construction paper to create a foldable card. My daughter was excited to write a personalized message in each card!
This week, we will download more Korean activities from the Aerilyn Books website. My daughter is looking forward to the “coloring hearts by number” worksheet!
DIY handmade Korean Valentine’s Day cards
Printable Korean Valentine’s Day cards are convenient, especially for busy, non-fluent families.
But if you have extra time, handmade valentines are always the sweetest gift! Our children’s grandparents, 할머니(Halmonie) and 할아버지 (Halabeoji) absolutely love getting cards with adorable doodles and handwriting.
Card-making is been a fun and motivating way to practice writing Korean or any language. It can also help kids remember how to say Happy Valentine’s Day in Korean (해피 발렌타인 데이!).
Even before children are ready to write, they can make Korean Valentine’s Day cards with pre-writing activities, such as tracing or word-matching with stickers. Learn how to use handmade cards for reading and writing practice here!
Getting creative with Korean Valentine’s Day cards
In the above photo, my kids put their Korean Valentine’s Day heart wands in an empty can and pretended to sell them for a whopping $36! I love seeing how creative they get with their play! And they crack me up with their pricing for various valentines!
We’ve also made a trilingual heart mobile with the same heart template. If you’re feeling extra crafty, check out this DIY Valentine’s Day decoration on our Cardboard Valentine’s Day Card Shop!
