Children's pastors stopped by the house to drop off a Valentine goodie bag for the kids. So grateful we found a church that goes out of their way for their members.
Prepped some volcano hearts the night before so the kids could make them frizz, one of the favorite activities. Mixed some baking soda, water, and food coloring into the heart silicone tray and froze it over night. The next day I placed them on trays for K and D and gave them a cup of white vinegar with some droppers.
Looked so pretty when the kids poured some vinegar on the hearts.
