Handful of Love

I found this neat idea for a Valentine's Day card at Preschool Playbook. But I saw it too late and my kids had already made cards for their parents. So I tweaked it a bit and decided to have the kids make it for a bulletin board display. First I traced their hands and they colored them in with crayons.

Then they cut out a heart that I had drawn on construction paper.

After I cut out their handprint, they glued it to the heart.

Then I used glue dots to attach a heart-shaped Dove chocolate to the middle of the hand.

I hung them all in the hall with the title, A Handful of Love.

The kids keep asking when I'm going to send them home so they can eat the chocolate!
