Hand your kiddo some paint markers and wooden hearts and let them loose. Since my two year old was completing this craft, I covered his highchair tray with cling wrap so clean up would be easier.
I used the paint markers to dot the cling wrap and let my son press the hearts into the paint. It extended the activity and created a cool look on the hearts.
For the wreath form, grab some foam board and two round objects roughly 6″ in diameter and 3 – 3.5″ in diameter. Place the 6″ object onto the foam board and trace it with a pencil. Place the smaller, round object in the center and trace it with the pencil. Cut along both lines with an Xacto knife.
Glue another row of hearts onto the wreath.
Flip the wreath over and glue a piece of ribbon on the back for the hanger. You can also use a can tab or magnet.
We made smaller wreaths so we could give them to grandparents and to keep one for our house. You can always increase the size of the wreath form to make a bigger wreath.
Enjoy!
