Valentine's Treats

Before you go gettin' all proud of me for getting this project done early, let me warn you. This is the first holiday in almost three years where I've actually been prepared enough to take treats to daycare.

So really it took me three years to come up with this.

We made our own Valentines. Mainly because I'm cheap and I know that in the end it's all going to get eaten and then thrown away. Plus I got the bags on clearance from Target last year and have been waiting to use them ever since.

I created a little card on a Word doc (I'm very high tech), printed it on card stock, and cut them out. Then Madeline decorated them with some colors and stickers.



She helped me fill them with pretzels and some candies. Which then turned into a bit of a math lesson. She counted out five Kisses and two Reese's hearts to go in each bag. I added a few extra later when I realized that we still had half of a bag of Kisses left over, and I certainly don't need to be eating all of that.

I tied them all up with ribbon, and we're ready to go!


Happy (early) Valentine's Day!
