Lovin' Bookmark

Materials
* foam paper in Valentine's Day colors
* glue
* markers
* scissors
* photos of your child
* optional decorations (foam hearts, sequins, stickers, etc.) as desired

Cut a 7 inch by 1 1/2 inch rectangle of foam paper. This will form the base part of the bookmark. Cut out a large foam paper heart (about 3 1/2 inch wide is ideal). Trim a photo of your child into a heart shape the same size as the foam paper heart. Have your child assemble the bookmark by gluing the heart to the base and then her photo to the heart. Let her decorate as she desires. On the base, write a Valentine's message and include the child's name.
