Valentine's Day Crmake A Proafts And Party

[daycare]

I am having a V-day party tomorrow for the DCK. We usually make a project for moms/dad/gmas etc. Cash is a little tight and I am trying to think of a neat project for the kids to do tomorrow that they can make for their loved ones that will not cost much.....

anyone have any ideas??

if you have fabric around you could make rag wreaths. Cut out a piece of cardboard (or bend a wire hanger) in the shape of a heart. tear the fabric into 1 inch strips and have the kids tie the strips around the wreath.

there are a lot of pics online, but here is a random one.

I posted in several threads this link.

I have everything for it except for the pretzels, so it'll cost me a dollar or 2.

UGH! same with me!

It's in both the recipes and the kids crafts section. It's chocolate dipped pretzels.

yuumm that sounds super yummy.. I guess the only issue with this is I have some kids allergic to chocolate.... I know how sad for them, so missing out...

But thank you sooo much for your feed back... I might have to make those for my own family..

I'm sure you can do a yogurt dip instead.

how long do you think that would take a child around the age of 3-4?? do you think that they would get frustrated or bored if it takes a long time?
That looks really fun..

i think if you make them smaller, like 6 inches in diameter, not too long. You could always make the strips wider too to cover more area. It's great practice for tying.

I remember making a xmas wreath with strips of a green garbage bag in elementary school.

It didn't take long at all.
