We've been creating a lot of Valentine/Heart related projects this month! Here is yet another idea that I wanted to share. This Valentine is "special" because we worked on this Valentine as a family. I love this idea and it comes from my daughter's Pre-K teacher. Every student in C's class received a big white blank heart to take home. The directions were to design the Heart in any way that they want, but that they had to do it as a family. C wanted to use marker to decorate the heart so she started out, then I joined in and started putting the yarn around the heart. Then Dad finally joined in with glitter. We all added some glitter along with Dad! It was a great time to spend some quality time together! I think this Valentine turned out very unique and if we worked on this separately it would have never had the same outcome. All of the Hearts from her classmates are all so different and FUN to look at! Speaking of collaboration, below this post are zillions of "Valentine" ideas from many other blogs....check them out!
I would like to work on a family "Art Project" again sometime. Below this post there is a blog hop included of many other "Valentine Ideas" from other Bloggers. Check it out!

What projects have you worked on as a family?
I LOVE it. My son's kindergarten class gets a family homework project once a month ... and we always enjoy. Such a wonderful idea ... and I think we might have to give this one a try too!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I thought it was a fabulous idea and I wanted to share it....glad it helps!
DeleteWhat a great idea to make a Valentine together! I just may steal this idea since we need to bring in a Valentine project for my daughter's class, but they haven't specified what to bring.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are inspired! I thought it was such a great idea to bring a family together and wanted to share!
DeleteThat is a great family valentine!! I think we need to start doing more art as a family together, i see that the dad is always left behind.. Thanks for the idea:)
ReplyDeleteYes, Dad needs to be more involved! I could see brothers and sisters having fun with this too!
DeleteWhat a great project. We had a family tree in pre-K, it was a fun family project to do together. No family projects in K so far except "All About Me" early in the year where we helped quite a bit.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Family time is so important and any project involving everyone is worthwhile!
