Cute and Crazy Valentine Ideas by Laurie Farmer
Heart Attack -
Cut out red-pink-white hearts...we use construction paper... glue
them to strands of yarn about 5-6 feet in length. Then make a sign that can be
taped to a door that says: You've been given a HEART ATTACK by .(your Visiting
Teachers............... (your name(s) if you want or you can leave
it anonymous...because YOU ARE LOVED! Scripture: John 3:16 written out at
the bottom of the note. Shaped like a big heart too. We would tape 5-10
strands to the door frame so that all they see is hearts when they open the
door....and we would leave a small basket of candies and cookies at the
door...tape the sign to the door & knock and run! Fun to do to friends,
neighbors, and Visiting Teaching sisters! (Idea by Sue in Tennessee)

Valentine's Dinner ~ A Country Hoedown
We
recently moved closer to family and this is the first Valentines Day that we got
to do something fun for Nana and Papa. For a preschool lesson my son and I cut
out a few dozen construction paper hearts out of red, pink and purple paper. On
one of the hearts we wrote, "I gave Nana and Papa a heart attack" On another
heart he wrote his Valentines Day message to them. On Valentines Day we waited
for Nana to leave her house then we put the hearts all over her front door and
porch. They loved their Valentines Day treat and he loved keeping the secret.
This could be done to bedrooms, cars, and friend’s lockers or even done for a
favorite teacher. (Idea by Christy Davison

Heart transplant -
You have two teams and they transplant tiny red hot hearts from one bowl
to another 10 feet away with chopsticks...no hands allowed ..if they drop
it they have to pick it up with the chopsticks.
Make
sentences out of the conversation hearts and see who can get the most.
Matchmaker - Empty a bag of candy hearts on the table. Set aside any
unpaired hearts. Play memory game by turning over the pairs so you can't
see the words. Mix them up. Players take turns flipping over two
hearts to make a pair. If a player finds a pair, they get to keep (and
then eat them). They continue taking a turn until they miss. Player with
the most pairs wins.

Paper sleeves for Valentine Cookies - FUN idea!
Take a holiday tin, like the small heart tins, spray cooking oil
inside the washed tin. Pour banana bread batter, brownies, whatever, in
and bake it right in the tin. Then put on the lid on them and hand them
out in the tins. You could easily frost brownies in the tin if you didn't put
too much batter in. (LeNore Merritt)

Crepe Purses - Make crepes and set them
aside to cool. Once they are completely cooled, put various valentine
goodies (chocolate kisses, truffles, or even whole strawberries) in the center
of the crepe. Using a thin, pretty, ribbon tie the crepe closed and gather
like a package. You could even use raffia.

Love Buckets (A
Fun Neighbor Gift Idea)
Teaching the Importance of Love: Get a hold of eight cups that fit into each
other. The multicolored toddler cups will do. Then go to 2 Peter 1: 5 - 7 and
label each cup with each thing Paul adds. Start with faith as the biggest cup
and label each successive cup all the way to charity. There should be 8 cups and
the smallest cup should be labeled charity. Next, go to 1 Corinthians 13:4 and
get the 16 things that make charity. Label Popsicle sticks with each one thing
and place them in the charity cup on top. A little flower glued to the top of
each Popsicle stick makes for a nice flower arrangement. They look nice and show
a simple way to go from faith to charity. Hey! maybe even back again. I make
them according to a rainbow color arrangement. (Credit:

Love Bucket Poem -
This little "Love Bucket" is meant to express
Love from a neighbor whom you'll never guess.
Replace the goodie with a treat from you,
And pass it on to someone whom you love too.
