Printing With Cookie Cutters

Valentine’s day is pretty BIG around here. It’s probably more accurate to call it Valentine’s month because we start thinking about and creating our valentines as soon as we put away our Christmas decorations.

Today we did some printing with some heart shaped cookie cutters. To make things a little easier I let them choose one color each.

I love how any time we bring out the paint, Isaiah always ends up painting his hands and arms. This time Kai decided to give it a try. He pushed through his discomfort of the mess and had a good time!

The boys started a little game of reaching out to each other and holds hands. The different paint colors would transfer hands and they loved it. I loved watching their smiles and feeling the joy of being a mother to these boys.
