Craft Valentine's Heart Crown from Families OnLine Magazine

Heart Crown

 

Construction paper

Tape

Felts, Crayons, or Colored pencils

Colored Pipe Cleaners

Glue

 

 

Measure your childs head.

 

Cut a strip of paper 2 inhes bigger than the measurement to allow for over lap. Your child can decorate the crown with felts or crayons.

 

Wrap the strip of paper around your childs head and tape together, making sure the overlap is on the inside.

 

While the crown is on your childs head, mark both sides of the crown with a pencil where the ears are, this is placement for the wiggly  hearts.

 

Take the crown off your childs head. Using the marks on the side, place a pipe cleaner on the mark you made in the above step. Bend the stem so that it  neatly hooks under the bottom of the crown and meets just above the top of the crown (enough to wrap around the stem to hold in place).

 

On the tips of the pipe cleaners, attach a heart. I used a low temp glue gun to attach them. Repeat  for the other side.

 

On the side of the crown, cover up the wire on the outside by placing a heart over each one.

 

Let  the glue dry fully before letting your child wear the crown.

 

As the child plays the antenna will wiggle and jiggle.
