Valentine's Day fun

I had the boys make salt dough hearts for a Valentine's Day craft.
C helped me with the dough.

Which consisted of poking the dough for a good half hour before making the hearts.

They both helped me paint.

V is very meticulous, painting each heart a different color and adding the perfect shade of glitter.


C was more intent on mixing the paint on his palette.


And eventually on himself. This was a few moments before he started painting his arms. Thank goodness acrylics are easy to wash off.


V exchanged Valentines in his class. I asked him if he wanted to buy them or make them. Of course he wanted to make them. I found some pictures online for him to color and then had him make his own envelopes. I think they turned out cute, and they kept him occupied for two days! He was especially excited when he found out that we were putting candy in them.
