Valentine Countdown fun (& freebies)

This is a project I used last Valentine's Day..basically a hide and seek with a Valentine's twist.  
For 14 days, I would hide a little treat for the kids to find.  
They had a good time with this last year.
It's that time again :)
This is part of my post from last February...
I've included the heart numbers for you!  
Enjoy!

________________________________

Here's what I used:

pipe cleaners (cut in half), clear treat bags and numbered heart tags

 

The idea is to hide their treat and have them find it.  
My kids love hide and seek so this is great for them.  
Plus, it may give me 5 minutes peace :)
We are starting off with lollipops (heart shaped to be exact)

 If you wanted to do something like this yourself...

but don't have the pipe cleaners and/or clear bags.  

Use some ribbon and plastic snack bags.  

Or twisty ties and saran wrap. 

 

I just think it's a fun treat for the kids 

and it gives them something to look forward to each day!

 

**Oh and if you need heart tags..here you go!**

days 1-6, days 7-12, days 13-14 & blanks

 

Happy February 1st!

Soooo cute! Maybe I'll muster up the time to do this, although I'm a little late to do 1.
