Valentine's Day Ideas

Friday’s Grand Connection Fun
by Mary May Larmoyeux

Valentine's Day is a great time to connect with our grandkids, and it's right around the corner! February 14 will soon be here.

Of course, kids love getting cards in the mail. Pops' and my grandchildren will each have an "I love you" message from us. I confess that I bought Valentine cards at the dollar store this year.
But you might want to try out some of the creative Valentine card ideas that are shared on Highlights' website.

And here are some more fun ideas:

Thumb Bunny Card

Valentine E-Cards from National Wildlife Federation

Valentine Cookies from Martha Stewart

Cupid's Arrows

10 Ideas: Valentine's Ideas for Your Family

Have a great weekend

Valentine Fun!

Friday's Fun

Valentine’s Day is almost here, with its endless opportunities to make crafts, cards, recipes, etc. with the grands.

I searched the web and here are some of my favorite ideas:

Play Clay Hearts This is a fun craft project. The online description says, “You’ll love this two-in-one project: a highly original valentine that moonlights as a usable ball of clay.”

Raspberry Tarts (I might just have to make these for Pops!)
Delicious heart-shaped cookies

Cupid's Coupons The online description says, “Cupid's Coupons, redeemable for extra-nice favors." You'll even find ideas for blank Love Checks to help you "write your own tickets to niceness.”

Creative Valentine Ideas

Kids Valentine Hat

Animal Heart Facts The heart of a blue whale is as big as a … (a) car; (b) gallon of milk; (c) tire. If you said “a,” you were right! Read 10 Animal Heart Facts for Valentine’s Day

Cut-out frog card to make for Valentine’s Day (or any day) – This is cute!

Discuss the history of Valentine’s Day

Here are a couple of final ideas:

Read 1 Corinthians 13 and discuss its meaning with the grands (and/or Grandpa). Pray that your family will be filled with the love of God.

Go to biblegateway.com with your grand (in person, together online, etc.) Then do a search for Bible verses that have the word “love” in them. Select several and discuss them.

Have fun preparing for Valentine’s Day!

He is able,
Mary
