Heart Suncatchers and Valentine’s Popcorn Mix

For The Littlest Apple’s Valentine’s party at Mother’s Day Out, we made Heart Suncatchers. It required a little prep work on my part, but the kids (and teachers and other mommies) all seemed to enjoy it. Well, all except The Littlest Apple. He was the ONLY kid who didn’t want to do crafts today. He did make one at home with me yesterday, so apparently once was enough. Since I used contact paper, there was no glue needed!! I used a large craft punch to cut out lots of hearts from tissue paper.

For our special Valentine’s Party snacks, I served heart shaped watermelon, strawberries, some store-bought cookies and brownie bites, and a Valentine’s Popcorn mix. I used popcorn dyed light pink with a sugar/vanilla/butter coating, mixed with pretzels, craisins, M & Ms, and red hots.
