I realized that since Kaboose is implementing their internet site and that i haven't been making anything on their behalf lately that I haven't been making any kid's crafts! I really thought we would remedy that today and came up with this fun Valentine craft you can make along with your children. Have some fun!

Paint the cardboard egg cartons inside and outside. Use fun colors like yellow, pink, red, purple and light-weight blue. Let dry. When dry cut out and trim.

Cut slits in egg carton and fold downward to produce petals.

Fold mini muffin liners by 50 percent, plus half again. Use a toothpick to softly poke a hole in the liner, dealing with all layers, about 3/4 in the pointed tip.

Carefully poke the lollipop stick to the hole at a folded liners. Repeat three more times, using four liners per flower. You can also just fold them in half and employ two instead, which can be easier for youngsters.

Grown ups should carefully poke an opening in the bottoom of the egg cup. Insert the lollipop stick from the hole, bringing the egg cup flower as far up as it is going to go. They must stay in place on their unique, but if you might have any which are not cooperating, simple secure the lolli stay with a bit of tape.
