Valentine Fun

I remembered Valentine's Day is this week and figured I would use a little creativity and fun to help Charlotte make valentines for her preschool classmates. We have lots of crayons around and this is what we did!
Charlotte really liked peeling the crayons.

Chop them up! Charlotte put the chopped ones in the bowl.

Fill the mold with crayon pieces.

Put them in the oven at 230* for about 20 minutes.

Let them cool and harden.

While waiting, glue the valentine pieces together.

Pop out the new crayons. Such pretty colors and patterns!
Some personalization on the back.

Beautiful, useful homemade Valentines!

Girl, we had so much fun making these! I had the idea but worried that you wouldn't be able to be very involved but you jumped right in! You found ways to help me at each step of the process. You thought they were so pretty and named people in your class that you would give them to. It is so much fun being your mom!
