Be My Valentine ... Won't Ya?

Surprise, surprise!!! We have a snow storm a'comin'!!!

So, if you're planning on being stuck in the house with your kids (today, tomorrow or Wednesday), why don't you run out real quick, grab some supplies, and make some home-made Valentine's Day Cards? In fact, you probably have many of the supplies already on hand ... It's not too late, and the Family Fun web site has a gazillion ideas ... go check them out!

In the mean time, here are a few pictures of some of their ideas ... you know ... to spark your curiosity! (all of these pictures are "borrowed" from the Family Fun website)

Those are pretty cute! I won't be stuck at home but I do have little ones who like to make crafts.

I love the finger puppet idea. That's what my 3-year old and I would do tomorrow. Then we'll have a puppet-show for my 1-year old.

I'm making Snuggle Bug the sweet shovel! :) I'm attaching a bag of cookies, rather than candy and I've found a larger shovel a Target. Fun, Fun!
