Make a Love Potion with your child for their Teddies this Valentines!
Valentine's Day is all about sharing love, and what better way to do it than with a fun craft that kids will love? Today, we're going to create a super cute Love Potion paper confetti and an old spice jar. This craft is not only easy and enjoyable but also perfect for adding a little magic to playtime with teddies and dolls!
What You'll Need:
Red paper
Hole puncher
Cleaned and dried old spice jar
Glue
Marker or pen
Optional: stickers, ribbons, or any other decorations you like
Here’s how to make yours
Make the Confetti: Grab your red paper and hole puncher. Let your child go wild punching out shapes and sizes from the paper.
Jazz up the Jar: Take that old spice jar and give it a good clean. Once it's dry, let the little ones decorate it however they fancy. They can write "Love Potion" on it, stick on some hearts, or go crazy with stickers and ribbons.
Fill the up: Time to pour in the confetti! Let the kids carefully fill the decorated jar with their colorful confetti creations. They can layer it up however they like for an extra special touch.
Seal and Shake: Once the jar's full, pop the lid back on nice and tight. Then, give it a good shake and watch as the confetti dances around inside like magic!
Playtime Fun: Now comes the best part – playtime! Kids can pretend to sprinkle their Love Potion on their teddies and dolls to show them some love. Or they can pretend to be doctors, using the potion to heal broken hearts and spread happiness.
Why we love this craft:
Creativity Boost: This craft lets kids unleash their creativity and make something unique for them to treasure.
Fine Motor Skills: Punching holes and decorating the jar helps develop those all-important fine motor skills.
Imaginative Play: Using the Love Potion in pretend play encourages imagination, empathy, and storytelling skills.
Have fun spreading love across your play rooms this valentines!
