Party Heart-y
Wednesday, February 9th, 2011From Wednesday Mom – Janelle:
I signed up to help with class parties in Jack’s classroom this year. One of those I chose to help with is the Valentines party. I love Valentine’s Day for obvious reasons, but also for the colors, the cheer and something special to celebrate during the gloomy days of winter.
I am in charge of cupcakes, drinks and a craft. Jack has already told me he wants to help mix the batter and lick the spoon with the icing on it. Go figure! I looked up some crafts online and wanted to share with you what Jack’s class will be making. Below is the link if you’d like to make it with your little one.

All of the kids will have their own decorated valentine box where they will receive cards from all their classmates. Jack chose Thomas cards this year, and he even signed each and every one of them with his name. I’m pretty impressed with his name writing. He has had a lot of practice by signing his name on the cards we sent to family as well as to his friends.
The parents in charge will decorate the room, provide lunch and dessert, and will send the kids home with fun goody bags. Jack is very excited about the upcoming party; he can hardly contain his excitement. I explained to him what Valentine’s Day is all about and he can’t stop telling us how much he loves us. Pretty cute I must say.
Hope you all have a happy Valentine’s Day!
