[/desperate attempt at getting some ideas]
Hey Guys...

Ok, I am a Children's church Director at my church for Preschool kids, and i'm kind of stuck on coming up w/ some easy, fun craft ideas for Valentines day. I know, I know, should be easy, but i'm still @ a dead lock. I don't want something boring, like making a card for hte Craft. We have an opening activity (which is where we're doing cards) and then Craft time. The Story for the day is "God First Loved You". any ideas?

c'mon....

that's a great idea! the kid's will love it!

Maybe they could make little coinstruction paper books of their own about the people and things they love?

Do what my class did in 3rd grade.
How many kids r in your class? Have everyone cut out that many hearts and write something nice about each person and give it to them as valentines. Then put everyones valentines on a poster (for each kid)

Does this make sense?

That's a great idea, Girl Meets World. Maybe I'll do that with the kids I work with.

Really? Thanks! :)

when i saw your title, i was like, "AM I ON MYSPACE?" :lol:

we made pop up ABC's books and they were a lot of fun. I still have mine :D

I'm terrible with crafts. I wish I could help.

Anyone? Mel needs help. :)

true, true, but it's for JEEESSSSSSSSUS

seriously, though, it's funny,I make it sound wholesome and happy, and no one replies... i threaten the lives of young children and use **** and God in the same acronymn, and I get replies. Ironic.

Thanks to every1 that did reply though! I appreciate it!

yea, that does make since... i might use HALF of that idea. See, it's preschool kids, so they can't write, and they have a different best friend every 5 minutes. But getting them to color a heart and glue it on a huge card is a very cute idea! thanks!

guess not :lol:

Thanks to every1 that did reply though! I appreciate it!I use God and **quadruple asterisks** in the same sentence, but to have it paired like that, uhh, didn't sound kosher. It surprised me that someone in a church group and teaching kids would use it in that combination. (Even though I'm sure I've done worse at church at some point or other... ;) )

just because you go to church doesn't make you free of sin

but, in my defense, it can be "Oh My Freakin' Gosh"

Okay, I can see "Oh My Freakin' Gosh", I've got to keep my mind out of the gutter! :doh: :lol:
