Valentine’s Week Fun

Sometimes, it’s just the simplest things that can turn an ordinary day into a fun one. During Valentine’s week, we had a Valentine’s sensory bin that was made with things I already had around the house and on one day, I made the kids a heart theme muffin tin lunch which they loved!

Our Valentine’s Muffin Tin Lunch:

• -heart shaped sandwich (kids liked the “eat me” toothpick!)
• -red pepper heart
• -pomegranate yogourt with hot lips candy on top
• -ham wrap topped with heart shaped cheese and heart pick
• -cucumber hearts
• -heart shaped grape jello jigglers

Our Valentine’s Sensory Bin:

 Included in this Valentine’s sensory bin is:

• pink Easter grass
• red, white and pink pompoms
• heart shaped cookie cutters of various sizes
• plastic jar opener
• white spoon
• heart rings
• pink bow
• heart pipe cleaners
• “Kiss Me” pick
• and a scented red candle.

I put in enough rings so that after their turn with the sensory bin, they can each keep one.
