Valentine craft, easy and fun

The Valentine garland written by Susan caught the attention of my girls and they decided to make it yesterday.

L. added her own flare to the garland instructions by writing the name of a family member in each of the hearts. This included not only the human family members, but the feline ones as well.
 

Now L. is thinking about expanding her garland to include all the chickens. With approximately 30 members of our poultry "family" (chickens, ducks and a guinea hen) living in the coop right now, she's going to busy with this project for a while.

The girls were able to follow the directions easily and did not need any help from me. And as they were content making their special garland, I was able to get some work done.

Now that's my kind of kid-friendly project.
