Valentine Heart Strings

Our book today was "How Do Dinosaurs Say I Love You?" by Jane Yolen and Mark Teague. We also sang the "Lion Hunt" before we made our Valentine's Day Heart Strings craft. We made our craft with recycled tp rolls, red paint, string and beads. Aren't they fabulous! They will make great window decorations year-round:)

Valentine Hearts

Today we made Valentine's Hearts using markers, coffee filters, construction paper, glitter, stamps and sequins. First we used markers to make designs on our coffee filters, then we sprayed water on them to make the colors bleed together! Next step was to dry the filters with a hair dryer. While we waited for the coffee filter to be really really dry we cut out the heart border from the construction paper. Once that was finished, we glued the parts together and decorated it with the extras:) They turned out beautiful and will make wonderful Valentines!
