Let's Make a Valentine Friend!

Let's Make a Valentine Friend is a new craft/activity pack...I took the many
suggestions I have received and worked really hard to offer something that has a lot of variation available.  Like the elves and pilgrims, you can have kids create friends with different hair colors and styles...but in this pack, I have created a template for a LARGE friend and a SMALL friend...depending upon the amount of display space you have. I also included 4 different writing prompts (in a variety of cute fonts and then also some more practical/readable ones.) 
The pack also includes a Valentine Class Graph!

Hope you love it =)
Here are some more pictures:

These crafts are perfect for a writing extension of your Valentine themed book study!

I will choose three comments from below (between now and tonight at 9 central- January 3, 2012) by random generator and they will get this pack free! =) Don't forget to Leave your email!
