Makes a great party favor or centerpiece. This is an easy daycare or class project.
Materials:
Red, pink and green construction paper
Glue
Scissors
Tongue depressors
Markers
Directions:
Cut out hearts (either red or pink) for the flower. Cut out two smaller green hearts for the leaves. Glue the flower to the top of the tongue depressor and the leaves to the middle of the tongue depressor. Draw a face on the flower and give as a gift to your favorite valentine! You can also collect all the hearts and place them in a vase for a centerpiece for a Valentine's Day party. When the party is over, the children may take their heart flowers home.
You can also use a small photo of the kids. Make a bouquet and send them to grandma!
