Let’s celebrate Valentine’s by decorating a receiving box + exchanging cards! Please bring a small box to decorate + any special decorations your kids want. We have lots of specialty papers, glue + tape in the Wildling tub to share. We’ll do our usual warm-up activity and then we’ll probably play some musical chairs or do some dancing interspersed with box decoration.
Exchange valentines! Below is a list of all the kids’ names, and the parents as well. Let’s make sure everybody gets something, please. Some of our people are traveling this week, but here’s a list of the 15 kids who’re planning to attend:
Arielle
Nehemiah
Aliyah
Elijah
Lena
Rosetta
Wilder
Seth
Elliott
Sadie
Rylee
Kaitlyn
Michael
Jackson
Xander
And their six (6) attending parents:
Christine
Amber
Leah
Jennifer
Alison
Becky
Jillian
Nicole
Monica (maybe)
This is a total of 21 valentines, if your family is giving to adults + children. No pressure from the adults segment – or at least not from me! Just a basic count for purchasing quantity.
Aaaaand here’s the pile of images I didn’t post yesterday. 😉
When this super fun morning ends, we can move onto the Galaxy jars craft. We’ll create these in the kitchen or outside, if it’s not windy. If your kids are interested in this, bring a glass jar that they can fit a hand comfortably inside (pickle jars are nice!) and a bag of cotton balls. I’ll bring food coloring + glitter. You might want a trash bag to carry these home in case of leaks – they’ll be full of food coloring.
Looks like it’ll probably be nice enough for everyone to play outside again, so bring clothing for that. Hooray!
This week, please bring:
Dentry Family – It’s your turn to bring a game/activity for everyone to play in the morning!
Box to decorate (optional)
Valentines to give out – one per kid, please!
Glass jar with lid for each kid in your family who wants to make a galaxy jar
Whatever craft, puzzle or game your kids want for today
Lunch, snacks + drinks for your people
