Did I mention...it's almost Valentine's?


It's time to start thinking about Valentine's Day.
For many lovely reasons.

One really important reason -Valentine Card Exchange!

 This is what The Boy will be passing out to his classmates this year.
We worked together.  But admittedly, I did the majority of the work.  

Making these Valentine's was easy and fun.  
And The Boy is very excited to be able to deliver these sweet rockets to his buddies!
I found this adorable idea on the Family Fun Magazine website.



You'll need colored construction paper, scissors, tape, glue gun (not shown), some type 
of rolled candy (fruity Lifesavers would be great too) and Kisses.



Cut your paper to size around your rolled candy.


Add your Valentine sentiment. 


Tape your paper around your candy.


Cut out your flame.  
Now, grab your glue gun and attach your Kiss to one end, your flame to the other


And there you have it!  
A different, interesting and sweet Valentine. 
And if you know my Boy - you know this Valentine is the perfect Valentine for him to give!

P.S. - The Sprite has a Valentine exchange too!  We'll share her idea soon!
