valentines past

Now that Christmas is over, I know you're losing sleep fretting about what to do for valentines this year. I find it hard to think of something the kids can actually help make, that doesn't take oodles of time (we've got 30+ kids in a class here!), and won't cost me an arm and a leg. I'm here to help with a collection of my favorite valentines I've made with my kids in years past.

For your son who wouldn't be caught dead passing out anything pink: STAR WARS VALENTINES 

For your daughter whose teacher has outlawed candy or anything delicious: I'M A FAN VALENTINES

For your son who thinks two pieces of candy are better than one: MR. HEART VALENTINES

For your daughter who wants to write a few special notes to her nearest and dearest: HEART CLOSURE VALENTINES

For your son who wants to make something special for each kid in his class: PORTRAIT VALENTINES

For your daughter who prefers notebooks to candy: PERSONALIZED NOTEPAD VALENTINES

And last, but not least, the ever popular: MATCHBOX VALENTINES

 Happy valentine crafting! We're off to create something new for 2013..

Teachers who have outlawed candy?! For real?

Loved this retrospective. I am going to borrow a couple of your ideas this year. And can I borrow your non-candy-loving daughter? :)

I have some ideas for you on my 2-14-2012 post from last year if you are interested. The roses were my favorite, in retrospect -- for a special someone or two!
