Recipe for Fun!!:
Number one: Have an amazing husband who encourages you, supports you and is just plain amazing! (He is also my incredible post party clean up helper!)
Number 2: Decorate!!
I have always wanted to try making one of these tissue paper flowers! I had so much fun!! I chose pink of course! Here are some great links on how to’s:
- crafts.kaboose.com
- You tube : enter in “make tissue paper flowers with your kids”
- No, the blue flowers are not mine, however were the biggest inspiration for mine! (Image found on google search. I am not able to find the website).
Number 3: prepare crafts for the kidlets! When I host parties, I love to have everything ready for when the kids arrive. Here I prepared the craft table to the kids when they arrive. We made clear contact paper heart crafts. www.allkidsnetwork.com. The kids were able to decorate their heart however they wanted. I loved seeing their creativity!
Number 4: Have some activities prepared for the kids!!
- We played a game that the kids had to guess how many candies were in the container. Whoever won had to share their candies with their friends at the party while we all sat down for story time.

2. We read Franklin’s Valentines. This is such a great book about friendship!
3. The kids each received a bag of candy hearts. They had to see who could make the tallest tower. This was even a hit with the mommies!!
4. We then had a balloon race. This was so much fun! Putting balloons between your legs and running in a race is quite hard for those little legs!!!
5. The next activity we did was have a sword fight! Well…..what else do boys do at a Valentine’s Day party?!
6. Finally it is COOKIE making time!!! Or is it eating time?!
Number 5: I sent each little one home with a party bag complete with candy, bubbles, stickers and some more candy!! (Sorry Mommies!!)
Some great websites I used for my party ideas:
HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY
