My five year old needs to bring Valentine's cards to school Monday and since we had a little time (she was home sick this week) we decided to go ahead and make them. Here's a simple, inexpensive project:
The craft store had all its Valentine's themed chachkies on clearance,Yay! (we likes a bargain)
colored pencils 6 for $.50
heart stickers $1.50
blank book marks 50 for $2.99
So, for the price of the store bought versions, we had a good hour's entertainment and something a bit more original.
1) hole punch both sides of the book marks
2) tie a ribbon through one side (we used left over
xmas ribbon)
3) decorate
4) slip the pencil through both holes.
