Roses are Red


Roses are red

chocolates taste sweet

my love for you grows

with every heartbeat.


It's February and love is in the air. This year our Valentine's Day theme is "Gifts". Help your child make a gift for a friend, neighbor or grandparent to let them know just how special they are.
For a quick, easy gift try decorating a heart with salt glitter. Color the salt by placing about 3 tsp. of salt in a zip-top bag and adding one drop of food coloring into the bag. Mash the contents around, adding more salt or food coloring until you have the right color. Open the bag to let the salt dry overnight.
Cut out a heart shape from construction paper. Let your child squeeze glue on the heart where ever they would like to have the glitter. Then have them sprinkle the salt over the glue and shake off the excess. Let the heart dry before giving it to a special someone this Valentine's Day.
