Another Fun Craft

I have Madison and Maya again today. Here is a quick blurb to show off another fun/easy craft for your kids - valentine marshmallow men. All you need is heart-shaped peeps, preztels for the arms and legs, chocolate chips for the eyes and mouth, and colored mini-mellows for the hands, feet and nose. I cut the marshmallow for the nose in half, making one side sticky and able to adhere to the heart. It was pretty simple, but they had fun. And who doesn't like peeps?!

What a cute idea! I love peeps and i don't think mine would make it to the finished product stage...i would eat it first!

No offence but peeps are one of the worst treats I've ever had. Having said that, what they made is darling and looks like it was alot of fun. I never cease to be amazed at how creative you are.

I love peeps! Now those pictures are making me hungry! I will have to try this craft too-I guess I just need to stock up on marshmallow items, they are a definite hit!!!

I am not a big fan of the peep either but they sure make a heckuva craft!

That looks like a fun craft also. I will also have to stock up on marshmellow and marshmellow products. I love peeps, Dave doesn't. I need to start doing things like that with Emma while Landon is at school.

You are such a creative little mommy/babysitter. Those seem like such fun crafts! It makes an even better craft because I am not a fan of peeps so then I wouldn't eat it all up!
