  1. I love those value hearts! So pretty! (And yet not necessarily “girly.”)

    Wow! The Value Hearts were a hit. Thanks, Patty, for the great idea. Each heart was unique and sooooo colorful. The kids loved making them. We have had cabin fever from all the snow and cold weather and these hearts sure have brightened our classroom.

    Hi Patty-
    I absolutely love this lesson-and the book. I did arty hearts with my kinders and first- they LOVEDthat project. Thanks for all you do!

    These hearts were so much fun to make! I purchased this lesson as an art project for my second graders right before Valentine’s Day (we needed to jazz up our bulletin boards). I was amazed at how well they turned out. They were vibrant, colorful, and full of personality! Thanks so much! If you want to see a picture of our bulletin board full of these beautiful hearts, check out my blog! Thanks so much!
