This is the first year that Hamish understands Valentine’s day and he wanted to get his daddy a gift
I wanted to help make the gift completely from him so I grabbed a few items and we got ready to make our own special gift wrap for this special gift.

To make your own you will need:
- White paper
- Red paint
- Heart cookie cutters

Directions
Making your own wrapping paper is really eaeasy and a nice activity for younger children.
I would start by lining our work surface if I was at school, but because we were using washable finger paint, I just added an extra sheet of paper underneath.

I placed some paint in a flat plastic plate, so that he could spread the paint enough onto the cookie cutter to be able to stamp.

And then I let him stamp all the paper with the different sized heart cutters.
When he was done, I set it aside to dry and later today we will wrap his dad’s gift in his very special wrapping paper.
