Easy Peasy Valentine Craft for the Little Guy

     My little guys absolutely LOVES to do projects and activities with mommy.  He calls it "Mommy School" (we started doing lessons over the summer and now anytime we do something together he calls it "Mommy School") 
     I put together a few very easy Valentine Day crafts to do with him.  They came out pretty cute.  I love seeing him all proud of his accomplishments.  Check it out!!

Melted Crayon Hearts:
This is where I originally got the idea.  She gives a full tutorial on how to make them. 
Crayon Shaving Hearts @ Skip To My Lou

AND HERE ARE OURS!

 

We don't have a crayon sharpener so Mr. P. picked out the colors and shaved them down with a sharp knife.  He then added the colors to the wax paper and spread them around how he wanted them.

He won't take a picture with out making a funny face right now.

We laid the other piece of wax paper on top and I ironed it on the lowest heat setting.  It didn't take long and he was fascinated by the blending of the colors.

After it cooled I free handed a bunch of different size hearts onto the paper, poked a hole in them, and strung them up with some ribbon we happened to have on hand.

Mr. P. came out from his nap the other day and said "Mommy, these look so beautiful."  Mission accomplished!!
