My boys had unexpected days off, hmmm, maybe I should say I didn’t check the calendar. They asked if they could have friends over, so I decided this would be a good time to have a Valentines Kids Crafting Party! We usually craft our V-day cards and gifts for teachers with just our family, but I thought this would be more fun for them. My friends came over, EIGHT boys in my house on a rainy day.
Yes, BOYS can craft! In between, making shooting sounds and chasing each other on a wet afternoon they would come inside to craft and snack.
The Ladybug Snacks pictured above & below are here and he NO Sew Ruffled Tablecloth (tutorial here):
Ladybug apples- apples, mini choco morsels & prunes
- Strawberry Ladybugs- melted chocolate, strawberries & mini choco morsels
- Ladybug Tomat0es – ritz crackers, red pepper dip mixed w/cream cheese, tomatoes, poppyseeds, raisins
