I asked them the questions and wrote in the answers and then they wrote their names and decorated the paper with stickers. I love little kid answers to things like this! One little boy said “showering” for what his mom was good at!
For a treat we had heart-shaped chocolate covered bananas. They were really cute and tasty!
Chocolate Covered Banana Hearts
4 Bananas
1/2 pound of milk chocolate
Sprinkles
Peel and cut the bananas into circles. Cut the banana slices into hearts by cutting the bottom to make it pointy and then cutting a ‘v’ into the top. Melt the chocolate over a double boiler or in the microwave. Dip the banana hearts in the chocolate, one at a time. Fish them out with a fork and tap the fork on the edge of the bowl to remove any extra chocolate. Place dipped hearts on a wax- or parchment-paper-lined cookie sheet. Repeat until all your hearts are covered. Decorate with sprinkles if you like. Refrigerate until you are ready to serve. These would also be great frozen.
Those banana’s look amazingly yummy! That was a super cute idea to valentine.
Melissa, you are just so talented! Your description on the side doesn’t do your blog and yourself justice, but your pic of yourself is beautiful!
You are nice to me. You should write me a new description! It’s so hard to do it for myself – it’s just weird!
Please post what Macey said for her answers. Is cleaning still what you are “good” at?
Bahaha! Yes. She said that and “cooking”. So I have branched out – and honestly when you live in 400 square feet, cleaning is quick (so is the mess making though!)
yum! how is teaching preschool w/2 other little ones? i’m trying to decide what I want to do w/michael next year.
I love doing the group preschool thing! It’s cheap (free!), it’s fun, and it was a great way for me to meet other women since they started the Monday after we moved into our house!
I just plan on Henry helping out and doing everything the kids are doing. If we are doing a craft or worksheet I just make sure to have everything for him too. He loves it even if he is just coloring on the paper while the kids are working on writing.
Kimball takes a nap for most of it, and when he isn’t napping he just plays on the floor. The kids love him!
It has worked out really well for me and even with having my other kids around.
I love this idea. adding it to my link list 🙂
