Our school district has declared today a snow day. This is a first for me because there isn’t any snow on the ground and it hasn’t even started snowing, yet! Um, wow. So I’ve been busy this morning looking for kid friendly projects to keep us busy today and through the weekend.
Here are a few favorites and a couple of blasts from the past…
Several cute ideas in one post over at My Insanity like these wax paper hearts! Destroying crayons? Hmmm…I think that is right up BBC’s alley!
I have adored these Valentine’s since I first saw them on Thirty Handmade Days. These WHEELIE hit home because BBC still says wheelie out of habit. I think we may make these for his class party.
Or maybe these cute little Love Juice Valentine’s from At Second Street. It’s bottled water, a flavored punch packet, a straw and printables – super cute!!!
I am a little biased, but I still think our Little Piece of my Art Valentine’s are a fun gift for family, especially grandparents! We made these once when BBC was 3 and again when he was 6 and both times were super special!
Of course BBC and I can’t go a snow (or unsnow) day without making a tasty treat. Maybe we will repeat these yummy Rice Crispy with Love treats. Nah, I think we’ll make more cream cheese bars. My boys LOVE them.
What are your favorite kid-friendly Valentine projects? Help us out!!!
Have a blessed weekend!

I saw that y’all were out today. My kids went, but it just started snowing here so I’m sure they’ll get out early. Love all the projects you showed. I think I like BBC’s homemade card the best though. Just precious! Have a great snow or non-snow day!

Great ideas! I’ll have to use some of these with my kids at church. Carla

Love the rice krispie treats…yum!! Such fun ideas…the “wheelie” would be so cute for some of the boys in Natalie’s class. Thanks for joining my Weekend Bloggy Reading party.

Those are some super cute ideas. Something I used to make with our kiddoes for Valentines, were giant “kisses” made with chocolate rice krispy treats. I would use a well-buttered funnel (tupperware used to have one that was shaped like a Hershey Kiss) & tightly pack in the krispy treat mixture, then pop it out. Then all you do is wrap them in foil & add a small strip of paper with your or your kids’ Valentine wishes. They looked really cute all piled on a plate or tray with other goodies around them.
