"Kiss" Countdown

Last year I made a "Hershey's Kiss" countdown to Valentine's Day for my boys.  It was a huge hit {which is not surprising given that it involved eating chocolate each morning}! This year, I decided to let them make their own, and here it is:


The boys started with a piece of foam core (from the dollar store), and I used hot glue to attach a "Kiss" sign (which I also got at the dollar store).  I printed some numbers from 1-14 on the computer, and they cut them out and glued them on.  Then, they added some foam letters and heart-shaped felt stickers.


To finish it off, I used double sided tape to add Hershey's kisses under each number.  I used three (one for each of my boys), but you can use any number.


Now we are ready for Valentines Day... and all the "kisses" that come with it!  ;-)
