Hi girls!
I'm planning a little get-together with some of the younger kids in our life for Valentine's Day, and I would love some new ideas for Valentine's Day crafts and/or treats to make and enjoy with them. I have lots of miscellaneous craft items and embellishments which they can use to make Valentines for their parents and/or siblings, and I have some cookie decorating supplies on hand; but I would also like something else fun to do, and I'd like to stay away from a lot of sugary snacks while keeping with the Valentine's Day theme. Any thoughts?
Thanks so much!
Hugs -

I don't know if it will work for you or not, but when I was younger I always loved making a valentine's box for the valentine's exchange at school. My niece is 7 (soon to be 8) and I bet she would love to decorate a box for her "treasures".

Hi Nini! My daughter, 12, and her friends are in LOVE with 'home-made' slime!!! ( made from ingredients around the home) She wants to make a batch to give to her friends and I thought we would put some in these red plastic hearts you get from HL. Then I cut out 'tags' for her to decorate for each kid in her class! She is all over it!!! ;) AND, you save a few teeth in the process! lol

Of course this would have to be 'age appropriate'!

I have the same idea as Heather. They can make Valentine boxes to hold all their goodies from others. You guys could make little heart pizzas and find a small heart cookie cutter and cut hearts out of strawberries or watermelon.
