Valentines...

Fifty valentines for free!  Both preschool classes have 22 children and two teachers... so we set out this morning to make 50 valentines (that's a whole lot of love!).  I pulled a few pages from some old calendars, we painted some magazine pages pink, found a torn painting to donate to the cause (after some discussion), and then started a bit of an assembly line.  There was plenty of cutting, folding, gluing, and decorating work for everyone.  The kiddos helped for the first 30 or so... and then they lost interest so I went ahead and finished the job.  I wish I had a stamp for the message inside, but I'll probably write out a little something and then have the kids sign their names.  We'll do a few each day so it doesn't feel like a big chore.  It took less than an hour, but I think they're quite sweet.  I'm definitely going to remember to use these calendars for future projects... great paper weight and lovely images and colors to work with!
