Some 'Hearty' Ideas

Valentine's Day is tomorrow, if you can believe it. Here are some last-minute ideas to amp up the holiday!

Scrumdilly-do shows how easy it is to make this cute 'heartfelt' memory game.

No Time For Flash Cards teaches how to use cookie cutters to make this 'hearty' pizza!

I've really got to 'give a hand' to Parents.com for this idea. These friendship cookies are adorable!

Parents also gives this lip-smackin' good idea!






Free Valentine's Day printable coloring pages, like this dear and bear, can be found at Kaboose!




My Chloe goes wild for hand puppets, so I think these easy paper-bag animal puppets from Scrapbooks Etc are simply fantastic!

As a life-long fan of Pick-Up Sticks, I was instantly smitten with Giddy Goat's jumbo take on the game!

For recipe ideas, definitely stop by Nana's Kitchen!

And remember, the kick-off party officially starts on Monday. But you can do your part to spread the word and enter to win grand prizes now. Go here for more details.


Thanks everyone. Have a great holiday and a wonderful weekend!

Hi Tara, I'm a friend a Taylor's I've heard all about your darling little girl since the day she was born. What a great idea starting this blog I look forward to learning more myself. Thank You Kylene

Stopping by from SITS. Thanks for the cute V-day ideas!

Tara, we got the puppet! Thank you so much--I am so excited to make it with Dakin. That's our plan for tomorrow.

The hand cookies are way cute and the lip smaackers are making me crave the cinnamon hearts that they have around V-day in Happy Valley--I would always get them at Kroger in Provo, I think. Oh, I miss them...I've never seen them anywhere else...

Anyhoo. These jello ones look like they might be a good replacement, though! Thanks for the idea!

Such cute and super fun ideas! I adore the hand puppets. They are so darn cute! I just love all the creativity!

Wouldn't you know... I stole a recipe from Nana's Kitchen and made her cream cheese brownies for Logan's Valentine's Day party at his school. I was told they were delicious. With no thanks to my diet, I didn't get to find out for myself. Oh well...

Happy Valentine's! Won't you be mine?

What cute ideas. My husband just got me a subscription to a magazine that I can't remember for the life of me what it is called right now but it is full of fun crafts and activities for every month. I love themed things to do with the kiddos :-)
