Valentine's Day Joy School Style


Thought you might like to see a few pictures of our Valentine's party.  We had so much fun.  With just two kiddos, it wasn't so much of a party in the traditional sense.  But, we made lots of crafts and had a good time.




First on the list--Valentine Crowns!  We made a crown out of red paper plates and the kids had a great time decorating them with hearts.  They loved using the punches!


Next we made a little carrier to take their valentines home in.  Again, we used paper plates.  Take two paper plates,  Fold them in half.  Staple together into a heart shape and add a handle.  Once again, the kids had a blast coloring and decorating them.  The kiddos practiced their letters and writing by addressing valentines to each other.  I sort of stuffed their little carriers with a few little surprises myself!



We played a few fun valentine games, like BINGO and Don't Eat Cupid.  We even read some valentine books.  Finally, a party would not be a party without treats!  The kids frosted and decorated their own cupcakes.  We supplemented the sugar with some strawberries and bananas.
