I was reading Better Homes & Garden and came across Valentine’s Day cards made with cookie cutters.
Perfect for those rainy days and little hands! This weekend we had big brother’s birthday party and after having 25 kids over, I needed an easy activity. Dad and baby sis were taking a nap and this was a quick set up and clean up.
You need:
Paint
Paint
Roller Brush
Paper
Cookie Cutters {we used hearts, X, O, I, and U}
Stickers {just in case the littlest wants more to do}
I saw some convo hearts from one of my favorite decor shops and they said, “Pin Me, Tweet Me & Like Me!”
I thought they were cute and threw some onto a card while I was watching the kids make theirs.
My hubs woke up while we were painting away and only the “pin me” had been stamped.
He doesn’t belong to any social media so I’m pretty sure he thought this card was for him and I let him think that for a bit.
I like to watch him blush and squirm.
He’s one sweet man for putting up with it.
Spending time with my boy and girl was awesome.
I couldn’t have enjoyed it more.
There were compliments given, sharing, teaching, taking turns, asking politely, and cleaning up afterwards.
My sweet boy tried so hard to copy what I was doing and I liked his even more.
We think this one will go to Grandma & Papa.
A few will go to their uncles (my baby brothers)
I’m in love with little hands. She has just the right amount of chub to still be my baby, but also the right amount of bone to be an independent little toddler.
Our collection of cards ready to go out to some of our loves!
Easy craft for a day in!
