Valentines Photo Props

Hello there!

 There is just something about photo props that I can NEVER get tired of. They are fun, versatile and can be used time & time again. And who's with me on this one . . .DO you or DO you not, feel silly & just like a kid when posing with them? Personally I LOVE getting to act like a big kid ANY chance I get!

There are LOTS of moms out there right now trying to figure out what to do for their kids classroom parties coming up here soon for Valentines Day. Well last year I was wanting to do something different myself, so I took in these Valentines Day photo booth props, brought my camera & the kids LOVED it. They posed, they giggled - it was a TOTAL HIT! I later sent all the parents, that asked, their kids pic!

If anyone would like to do this IDEA, you can get these Valentines Day photo booth props, in my shop!

What IDEAS have you done for a classroom activity for your kids classroom parties at school? I would love to hear - let me know below. ;)

CRAFT :: Kids Valentine PENCIL Ideas

Today I am bringing you an EASY & FUN kids craft involving PENCILS!

You see so many cute pencil packs this time of year, so here's a couple ideas to use with them!

I have two quick & easy ideas for you & the kids will LOVE them both. These are the PERFECT craft idea for your child's classroom parties at school or to do with them at home, so have FUN! 

First up - this super easy favor to make in class with a group of kids or you can have your kids make them to give as a valentine. A few ideas for ya on this one!

We shall call him "Silly Heart Pencil Topper" - k?

To create: 
1.  I had my daughter use the craft coloring sheet from the Silly Hearts collection & colored in one of the hearts & cut it out
2.  take pipe cleaner & twist in knot at top of a pencil
3. continue wrapping the pipe cleaner around another pencil to create the 'twisted' effect
4.  repeat on other side until you get the 'antennae' look
5. cut a heart shape out of the pattern paper from the Silly Hearts collection, 6.  fold vertically in 1/2
7. snip 2 cuts on the fold  - one about an inch down from the top & the other an inch from bottom - both about 1/2 in.
8. insert pencil w/ antennae in the 2 holes snipped
9.  glue on sides of heart from step 1 & adhere to the heart w/ the pencil in it (don't glue entire backside of silly face heart - so it allows you to remove pencil)

Next up . . .   Valentines pencil! This is a perfect IDEA to use as actual Valentines for your kids to hand out in class!

To create: 
1. take pipe cleaner & measure down about 8 in & create a loop
2. cross the loop towards the bottom
3. twist them together
4. it should look like this
5. start twisting the bottom of pipe cleaner around the top of a pencil
6. it should look like this . . .

7. push down at the center of your loop
8. this will create the heart shape & adjust it the way you like
9. should look like this - You can then add a topper from the Silly Faces collection as a Valentine & you're done!

Hope you enjoyed these EASY Valentines Day pencil crafts that you can do with the kids! What fun valentines crafts have you done this year? I would love to hear what you've been crafting up with your kids! ;)

CRAFT :: Easy Valentines bookmarks

Hi. Staci here from Lizard and Ladybug. Today, I’m sharing a super sweet and super simple Valentine project.

You’ll need 2 things:

- Paperclips

- Ribbon

I don’t really measure so I’ll guess the ribbon is ~5” long.

Loop it around the end of the paperclip and that’s it!

You can attach these to a book as a sweet gift.

OR

You can attach these to a simple tag and give with some candy.

Happy Valentine’s crafting!!
