Love tree: Valentine Craft

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy! -
My daughter keeps requesting more Valentines crafts.  I am not sure if its because she "loves" well or if there is a lot of "pink" in Valentines Day.  :)  She loves the color pink!  It is also a good idea to talk about love and what it means and what the Bible says about it.  :) 
This was a simple craft that younger ones can enjoy.  My 4 year old traced her hand and colored it in and that was our "tree."  After that I gave her the glue bottle and heart cutouts from the dollar store and let her glue them on her tree.  You could also cut out your own hearts but we purchased these a few weeks ago so I was waiting to use some of them.  :) 



"To love Him with all your heart, with all your understanding, and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices." (Mark 12:33)

Well, you have gone and done it! You’ve stood across from the love of your life and made your vows in front of your family, friends, and God. You’ve entered into the contract of marriage, but while it may be a solemn contract, that certainly doesn’t mean that it shouldn’t be fun. It’s strange how many newlyweds expect life to undergo some kind of seismic shift upon tying the knot, assuming that their lives will not become a pattern of domestic drudgery with pleasure, intimacy and fun going out the window and that elusive spark between you fading away until you either can’t stand the sight of each other or are happy to tick over despite the grinding mutual resentment. Happily, the truth is that marriage is neither a ball and chain nor a grueling assault course. But like anything worth having, a marriage needs to be maintained.

My daughter got one of those Orbeez bead sets for Christmas.  I was so amazed at how those beads grew in the water.  It was so much fun!  :)  My daughter made her necklaces with the beads but we had a lot more m beads so we have been using them for some fun sensory play.     We put the beads in a dish and we got some glow sticks and put them in the container with the beads.  The beads looked really awesome.  :) My daughter loved it.  She played in the dark with the beads and glow sticks for a long time.  :)
