Confession time: I’m not a huge fan of Valentine’s Day. I honestly think it’s overhyped. But, I have a daughter who absolutely loves EVERY holiday, so we usually end up making a handful of new Valentine crafts each year. We were going through our crafts of Valentine’s past and re-discovered the Valentine Pets and the […]
Printable Heart Sun-Catcher
Sun-catchers are fun and very simple to make… we make it a point to do one for each holiday. We did this one last year for Valentines Day, but I had just free-handed it. This printable version is MUCH easier! I also cut hearts out of the tissue paper instead of squares. Lorelai LOVED it! […]
{ Handprint Heart Valentine Craft }
Valentines Day is just a few days away! We haven’t had the chance to do many fun projects for the holiday as of late, but we will make up for it this week. I originally saw this on Pinterest (original pin) and knew we would have to do it! We did a fun handprint heart […]
Crayon & Watercolor Hearts
Lorelai has been begging me to do crafts today. Unfortunately, no new printables are made up right now, and we don’t have a printer here in Maryland. So I came up with this fun little painting activity for this afternoon. It was super easy and the hearts came out really cute! We did a similar […]
{ Homemade Heart Sponges }
Sponge hearts are sooooo easy to make. In fact, making shapes out of sponges is so easy and makes for a fun little project for your little one. We made sponge fish a while back that Lorelai really enjoyed. She was thrilled to bits the other day when I cut out these hearts. Unforuntely, because […]
{ Hearts Stamps with Paper Roll }
Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! I know I’ve mentioned this before, but I’m actually not a huge fan of the holiday. I believe that love should be showed year-round, not just on one day. It’s a fun holiday with a child though, especially one who whole-heartily LOVES Valentine’s Day! =) I made her heart pancakes first […]
Valentines Day Handprint Card
Lorelai and I were discussing Valentines Day again this afternoon and I asked her if she wanted to buy valentines this year or make them herself, and of course she chose making them herself. I asked her if she wanted to make on for her Gammie and she jumped all over that. I explained the […]
Printable Valentine Pets
Last night while doing the elephant, M came over and said I should make a cat for Lorelai since she is [STILL!] obsessed with them. He had to help me a lot on it because the vision was just not there, but we got it. It’s not perfect, but it’s Valentine-y. 🙂 He had to […]
Valentine Elephant Craft
We have all been enjoying the valentine animals that Lore has crafted. We have them displayed on the book shelves, on the fridge, etc. I saw something similar to this craft on the Disney website and decided to make my own version of it into a printable. Lore was happy that she got to do […]
{ Tissue Paper Sun Catcher }
We did this craft today at lunch time. Sorry for the craptastic photos. I’m not feeling well and Lorelai had a messy head from sleeping on wet hair last night, so no pictures. Plus she was covered in peanut butter. 🙂 Materials We Used: 2 Pieces of Construction Paper (Pink) 2 Pieces of Wax Paper […]
{ Heart Mobile Craft }
This weekend, we’ve had two crafts going at once. The first is this heart mobile. We just finished on day 2! I’ve wanted to do one of these for a while but never got around to it. Since Valentine’s Day is coming up in a couple of weeks, hearts were perfect. Lorelai was thrilled to […]
