As I said in my previous posting, I'm not into this celebration AT ALL. However, I find it a great chance to make all kind of heart crafts and get all these uplifting colours (pink, fucsia, red) around me. Yesterday I had a wonderful time at school, where I taught them how to make this card with a lovely surprise inside:

It proved a rather easy and enjoyable craft for kids (and me for that matter!). One class traced their own hands, however the result was not very nice, as their fingers came out really thin.So, for the rest of the classes we used a template.When they finished, I told them that they should give it to a person they love. I can't describe my hapinness, when I found four cards on my desk addressed to me right after the break!
Of course, this whole hearty card making triggered funny incidents, such as, pupils teasing their mates by hiding cards in their bags (mostly boy to boy), hiding cards in their Valentine's cabinet (the boys proved to be more courageous!), lots of laughs and so on!
This card, not only helped me deliver a nice lesson, but it spread a happy feeling all over the school!
Nice...
And may I announce the lucky one of my V's giveaway!
