Valentine's Day is a big deal here it seems. The week before Valentine's Day the kids in Riley's class all made a special paper bag that they decorated with hearts etc to collect their Valentine's cards in. The week leading up to Valentine's Day the kids were allowed to bring in their cards and place them in the other kids' special bags and then on the Friday (the day before Valentine's Day) the class had a special morning tea where they were each allowed to bring in a treat and the kids were allowed to take home their specially decorated bags and see who gave them a Valentine (judging by Riley's stash I think it is the done thing to give one to everyone - oopsie we only did 8......I didn't realise you could buy kits for such occasions and so we made ours from scratch). For the morning tea Riley and I decided to make heart shaped cookies for the class. He was very good when it came to decorating them and even made a couple of 'special' ones.....
Hard at work.
The first plate of decorated ones. The one with the 'M' on it is for the girl that he has a crush on called Megan (of course here it is pronounced Maygan and he is constantly correcting me) apparently she liked having a special cookie.
This flower cookie was for Riley's teacher.

at idea for the kids. Riley's decorating skills are excellent, he is such a clever boy!
It is lovely that he has a special someone to do a special cookie for and the teachers flower looks great!
Thats so sweet that he wanted to do one for is teacher.. I'm surprised though that he only wanted to give out 8 cards - doesn't he usually have more on the go than that? LOL! Just kidding. The cookies look great!
