quick-and-easy for Valentines' Day



Valentine's-Day is one of the most exciting celebrations for little kids. They love getting and giving cards and gifts for the friends and teachers. There are so many fun ways to make Valentine's special. Here is a cute idea that uses tissue paper and Mod Podge. I think this would make a great vase for a teacher. You could even adapt the idea for a class project-just use small, plastic cups or containers!

Recycle an Old Play Mat

What do you do when you need to find a new use for an old play mat? Tonya from the This and That blog shows a cool way to turn an outgrown mattress from an infant play yard into a great play mat for little cars or trains. Check it out here. I think this mat would also make a great pirates map or even a world map!
