Disney Side Party Delay

Well, I was chosen to host a #DisneySide party back in February.  I was/am very excited about being picked.  Unfortunately, I wasn't able to do what I originally planned-which was a Valentine #DisneySide party for my youngest daughter's class.  Why? Because she got pneumonia and totally missed Valentine's Day at school because she was in the hospital.

We were both really bummed about not being able to host the party with her class, but her health is obviously far more important than anything.  So, we put it off because between snow days and her illness she was out of school for almost the entire month of February!  We debated about just doing a little party at home, but decided it would be much more fun to include her classmates.  We are trying to work out the details with her teacher.

We did, however, make our tie-dyed cake, due to a nut allergy in her class I couldn't have used it for our #DisneySide party anyway.  It turned out really well, and my kids loved how colorful it was.  You can check out the finished product on my Instagram.

 



I have a couple of additional sponsors for my party CrunchPak and Brothers-All-Natural, they were kind enough to send me either product coupons or actual items to help make my #DisneySide party more magical.  These companies will be included in my celebration, when we do have it.

I will be posting all about our party when it happens!

Fun Homemade Valentines

Valentine's Day is just about 10 days away.  Do you have kids that exchange valentines at school?  My two youngest kids are in elementary school, so they both exchange valentines with classmates.  We are required to give one to each kid.  I don't mind that. But, this year I'm pretty sure my son is going to give me a hard time with that.  You see, he and his best friend have been having some issues with one of their classmates.  Never the less, we will do a valentine for each child.

A few years ago we made these cute "Love Bug" valentines for my son's class.  This was before my youngest daughter was in school.


 I bought a 24 pack of mini canvass, a red ink pad, and black permanent marker.  We started by making the bugs with 2 thumb prints, we did that on all of the valentines and waited for them to dry.   Then we drew little antenna and faces on each bug.  Once that was dry my son wrote his name on each one.  They were a big hit!

Last year one of my friends posted a craft idea for heart shaped crayons that she was doing for her son's preschool class.  I loved it! You can see that here.  I went in search of molds that I could use to make my own.  I couldn't find anything like it, but got a chocolate silicone mold that was really pretty.  I just put broken crayons in various colors in each mold.  I heated them up in the microwave because of the fact that my mold was silicone.  I kept checking on them at minute increments.  I used tooth pick to pop any bubbles that came up.

I love the pattern!



This is what they look like at the back.

I added these crayons to goodie bags for both of my youngest kids'  classes since I didn't think they would stick to a valentine.

My question to you is.. Do you have a fun valentine idea?  Share with me, since I'm not sure what to do this year.
