{Printables} "You’re Just ‘Write’ Valentine!"

Are you ready for Valentine’s Day?
I have been busy getting my children’s Valentines all ready for school. We don’t have school on Friday, so my kiddos have their parties tomorrow!

I had to have them done today, so I sat down and got to work. I have to say I think they turned out great!

  


A few weeks ago I was shopping at Michael’s and came across a pack of 24 Valentine’s Day pencils. I thought they were great, so I bought two packs and figured we would come up with something for my children’s valentines.

I had seen so many pencil ideas in the past, but hadn’t had a whole lot of time to sit down and actually get to work. Yesterday I started searching Pinterest and saw tons of pencil ideas. There were lots of phrases that included ‘write’ and ‘sharp’, and then I saw some cute Pencil valentines with word finds and mazes. I loved the idea so that is what I decided on.

Lately my children have been in love with tic-tac-toe and word finds. My son’s weekly spelling word practice usually includes us creating a word find for him.

At first I was only going to print one puzzle for each child (half tic-tac-toe and half word finds). But then my darling children said ‘But what if my friends want both puzzles.’
We decided to print the tic-tac-toe game on the front and then printed the word find on the back.

Unfortunately my printer sometimes has issues with feeding the paper in correctly, but for the most part they turned out great and lined up correctly (I dont’ think many 1st or 3rd graders will notice).

We printed them all out…cut them…wrote names…and then attached each pencil with some cute washi tape that I had.

You could also punch a hole and tie the pencil with some twine or ribbon. 

Now for some exciting News!!

My Valentines will be available for purchase in my Etsy shop…but for 1 hour I am having a ‘Freebie Flash Sale’! 
That’s right! You have until 10:15 pm {MST} to click the links below and download my Valentines for free. After that you can find them in my Etsy shop.

So Hurry! Tell your friends and family to head on over before they’re gone!


Thanks for stopping by!
Happy Valentine’s Day!

Valentine’s Day Scripture Chase

So we wanted to come up with a fun way to do a scripture chase.  We found scriptures that fit with a Valentines theme… So we thought conversational hearts was super cute– the girls worked together to match up the hearts to the scriptures and find the answers.

We divided up the girls into 2 groups to race with each other   They received the scripture reference  then they had to read it out loud, run to the candy bowl, pick out the conversational heart that it best matched with, run back to the group and read the next scripture.

The first team to complete this game won a sticker- I am sure we could have found something better- but stickers are fun!

Afterwards we went into the kitchen to decorate cupcakes with hearts and candy sprinkles.

These girls are super fun!!

Here is the list of Scriptures we used- but you may have to find the scriptures that best match your hearts:
John 3:16

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.—
”ONLY ME”

34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.—
 “LOVE ONE”

21 And now as I said concerning faith—faith is not to have a perfect knowledge of things; therefore if ye have faith ye hope for things which are not seen, which are true.—
”IT’S TRUE”

4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.—
”YOU ROCK”

18 Yea, blessed is this people who are willing to bear my name; for in my name shall they be called; and they are mine.—-”BE MINE”

 36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.

 37 And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.—
”TRUE ONE”

30 And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me. And all the people came near unto him. And he repaired the altar of the Lord that was broken down.—
”COME NEAR”

30 And it came to pass that the angel spake unto me again, saying: Look!  And I looked, and I beheld the heavens open again, and I saw angels descending upon the children of men; and they did minister unto them.—
”ANGEL”

7 Ask, and it shall be given unto you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.—
”ASK ME”

31 And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, saith the Lord God.—
”U R MINE”
2 And it came to pass that he spake unto me, saying: Behold I have dreamed a dream, in the which the Lord hath commanded me that thou and thy brethren shall return to Jerusalem.—
”DREAM”

2 Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being ofone accord, of one mind.—
“ONE LOVE”
