Valentines Day, of course, is a great time to send little notes to your friends to tell them how much you care! We've been busy getting some notes ready, and also playing Valentines note make-believe...
First, a SUPER easy way to make a heart-shaped stamp (from
Hands on as We Grow)
|
We took an empty paper towel roll and pinched the ends into a heart shape. Dip in paint and stamp away! |
|
A very fun way to make cards for friends! |
|
Don't forget to smush the paint around a little too. |
For our "make-believe" Valentine play, we used an old tissue box (we certainly had plenty around after this sick week), covered it with butcher paper, and decorated it to look like a mailbox.
|
"Bear Mail" box |
|
We used some old Valentines (so glad I cleaned out my school stuff) and colored on them, then put them in the mailbox. |
|
We took them out, and put them in again. A popular activity. |
|
It was also fun to stuff all of the crayons into the mailbox. Maybe Grammy would like to get a bunch of broken Crayolas in the mail? |
Even though it was a tough week with being sick and cranky and stuck inside, these little things have given us some bright spots! Looking forward to Camp for Babies tomorrow: Valentines Fun!
