sweet mailboxes....

I love Valentine's Day crafts. There are so many which makes it hard to narrow them down to 1 week's worth! We started the week decorating our mailboxes to hold our valentine treats on Thursday.

First they painted their boxes and then added the embellishments.

GLITTER! Who doesn't love an art project with glitter! I love to watch the kids faces when they add the glitter and then pour off the excess to reveal their design! They love being able to shake all the colored-wonder on their papers and even have enough coordination to pour off the excess in the plate themselves! They have really progressed this year!

Can't have Valentine's decorations without doiles!

Ready to go home and eat our treats! One child was excited to go home and see what the "Valentine Man" had brought him. At first I didn't know what he was talking about and then I realized it was Cupid! ha!
