Valentines Day crafts or ideas?
Anyone have cute ideas to share to make by myself or with boys?? TIA
Re: Valentines Day crafts or ideas?
Be careful with this. Check with the school and see if home baked goods are allowed. My sister's school only allows store bought treats that are still sealed.
This website has some good ideas for children around your boys' ages. I have made the heart penguin with kindergartners before. I traced all the half hearts on to folded paper, they did the cutting and gluing.

Check out orientaltrading.com they have all kinds of crafts you can do. I also used to work at a school day care and I found a really cute craft where you make people out of pipe cleaners. Even the boys liked it. Their ages were from 6 to 10. You will need pipe cleaners, pom poms, little eyes and a pencil. You can use regular glue, but I would suggest hot glue. It worked better for us.
