Valentine's Day

Today we did our first Valentine's Day craft...we made a Valentine garland. I cut out hearts and Kaitlynn and Gavin decorated them with red cotton balls, heart and flower foam pieces and jewels left over from Gavin's birthday party. Then we taped them onto a pink ribbon. We stuck ours on the fireplace. Kaitlynn was very good and putting her cotton balls onto the glue and sticking the foam pieces onto her hearts. Gavin is getting better at using the Elmer's glue without making a big mess and he even peeled off the paper backing on his foam pieces all by himself! In fact, other than cutting out the hearts, I didn't have to help him at all with this project!
