Valentine, You ROCK MY WORLD!
Even though our Christmas tree is still up (I know, I know, I haven't the heart to take it down), my mind is currently on Valentine's Day and all the lovely crafts that go along with that. Last year we made adorable heart shaped glasses and DIY Coffee and Candy Gifts. This year I'm challenging myself to think of 10 easy funny, pun-y crafts that say Happy Valentine's Day!
Here's my 1st attempt!

Fluttering Butterfly Craft!
Hello friends! Today I wanted to share this really neat fluttering butterfly craft that I recently did with Chuck. We cut out, painted, and folded butterflies that flutter when you move them! (We also made some lovely butterfly notebooks too!) The whole process entertained Chuck for quite awhile, so I thought other kids might like it too!
I know it's winter, and most people are doing winter crafts with their kids, but honestly, I just haven't had the heart to do so. Our weather is right now in the 60s which is totally bizarre to me. I'm used to cold, wet, or snowy winters.... not cool, sunny ones. It's very weird ... but I'm thankful for the sun and warmth!
This butterfly craft was inspired by our local butterfly grove. Nearby our home is a plot of land where monarch butterflies migrate to during the winter. How neat is that? Last week we hiked up to the butterfly grove and saw thousands of butterflies, clumped together in tree branches. It was a pretty amazing sight. (And I WISH I could have taken photos of them, but they were just too high up to get a decent shot.) One of the other children at the park found a dead butterfly on the ground and showed everyone. Chuck really wanted to find one of his own, but we never did. So I came up with this craft so that he could have his very own fluttering butterfly.

Looking for kids' butterfly books?
This would definitely be a great craft to go along with any of these great butterfly books!
