I know I’m throwing crafts at you guys but I also know that I’m not alone when it comes to doing Valentine’s Day cars with the kids. We just started doing ours last night. We started with pencils and store bought ones just in case we don’t have enough time to finish hand made ones. This craft is straight from the FamilyFun Magazine.
“Sweet Mice”
Description:
Made of two Hershey’s Kisses and a heart-shaped set of ears, these tiny critters are almost too cute to eat.
Materials:
Ear and foot template (from familyfunmag.com)
Card stock paper
Hershey’s kisses
Tacky glue
Gray yarn
Googly eyes
Markers
Glue Dots
Directions:
Print the ear and foot templates on cardstock and cut out the shapes.
Remove the paper flags from two Hershey’s Kisses.
Fold the feet where shown on the template, then use tacky glue to sandwich the feet and ears between the Kisses.
Glue a 4-inch length of gray yarn to the underside of the back kiss.
Add googly eyes.
Attach the mouse a cheese-shaped piece of card stock with a glue dot, then write a note.
