Room Mom? Valentine's Day Class Party Ideas!

Being a room mom for many years for my girls, I am always on the look-out for great class party ideas!  I ran across these and saved them for later... maybe you can use them too!

When it comes to party planning, nobody does it better than One Charming Party. Here is the Valentine class party they shared on their blog - awesome!

This site shares party hat ideas from paper plates - for every holiday!

I know I shared Bingo the other day, but I had to include it here since Bingo is my go-to class party game if there is extra time!

For older classrooms, these Mad Libs are perfect!!

Make and Takes is a great blog with tons of good ideas - she pooled together these great Valentine class party ideas:

Letter Match - pair up upper and lower case letters - great for lower grades!

Heart Lei made with yarn, straws and hearts!

Giant Tic Tac Toe - use posterboard and handmade felt hearts for the playing pieces. Make a few and you can have 4-6 kids playing at a time!

Three pipe cleaners and each kid gets a new pair of glasses to take home!

Put these together and the kids can put theirs together and then trade with another student for even more fun!

 

Even MORE Valentine Goodness!

 I think these would be great for the girls' teachers! We actually own the donut hole maker, so that would work!  She even includes printable labels!

What a neat idea this is - put a heart on your children's bedroom door each day with something nice about them. Start on February 1st and by Valentine's Day, they have a door full!

Love this idea! I wonder how much tic-tacs are at Costco? 

How neat are these Danish Heart Baskets? Love!

My next Valentine post will be filled with class party ideas!

More Valentine Goodies for you to Enjoy!

 Free Printable Valentine Bingo!

Aren't these paper candy hearts the best ever?

Did you realize how easy it is to make regular cupcakes into heart shaped ones? I didn't, but I do now!

How neat is this paper heart wreath? 

More valentine sharing in the next few days!

Project of the Day - Valentine Subway Art

 I haven't been quite as productive with the projects of the day this week - but I did get a couple of things started...
and one thing finished!  I completed a Valentine Subway Art Sign!

I used my Silhouette vinyl cutter and three different colors of vinyl to create the wording. I painted one of my wooden boards and then applied the vinyl to create the subway art sign. Viola!

If you would like one of your own, just email me missy@sweetfunkyvintage.com and I will invoice you - $35 for the sign ($11.50 for shipping if you aren't local).

The sign measures 10" x 13".

More Valentine's Goodness

 Pinterest and the web in general is an absolute treasure trove of Valentine ideas!  I love it!
Two years ago, these were the Valentines that my girls handed out...

Last year, these were the Valentines that my girls handed out...

So, I am determined to come up with a good idea to use this year that wont break the bank since I have three girls and about 75 Valentines to make!

Here are some of the best ideas I have run across so far...

Getting ready for Valentine's Day!

I don't know about you, but I always feel a little let down after the excitement of Christmas and New Year's wears off.  Then, I start thinking about Valentine's Day being right around the corner and that perks me right up!
So, I thought I'd share some of the Valentine's goodness I have been spotting around the web...

I have to say that I love, love, love the idea of creating these with my girls.  They look super easy and fun to do!  And, there is a handy, dandy tutorial here!

How pretty is this treat? You can find info on how to make them here! 

Thanks for checking out my blog! Stop back by and enjoy more Valentine's love!
