I need some super cute treats for my 9 yo v day party

When my kids were little we made cupcakes like hearts. Before baking slide a marble at the top of the cupcake (between the liner and the pan) it will bake into a heart. We also would buy the squeeze it (Koolaid brand I think) & tie a small bag of hershey kisses with a tag that said here's some kisses and a squeeze from .....

I would like some ideas for my DS's daycare too. I would like to do something cute and simple but with WOW for them instead of a card with a suckers stuck through it, ha!

Thas exactly what my DS's class is getting at daycare. They don't allow any home made items. It all has to be store bought. So we are pretty limited.

Everywhere here (schools, etc) has to have store bought now.

For good reason - you'd be surprised what some people do. When I was teaching second grade, a parent sent in cupcakes for her DD's b-day - in the gerbil box! She had dumped out the shavings in the box (you could still see some), then stuck the cupcakes in there for her DD to bring to school! :yuck: :yuck:

Her reasoning? She didn't have a box and if the shavings were dumped, she didn't see the big deal! Needless to say, the store bought rule went into effect the next week in that school district!

Ick! Yikes! For my DD pre-k class, I'll include stickers or something like that. I like giving something that ISN'T sugar and that's fun. I did that for another treat recently and they loved the stickers...something to do! Of course, I included a chocolate chip cookie (yes, store bought here too...but organic). I'd love to do something homemade, but with the above post, I guess it's true...I wouldn't trust everyone!

Now that's just plain nasty! :yuck: I hope she never invited you over for dinner.

Ok, that's just disgusting. If she felt that was ok to serve to children, can you imagine her kitchen? I'd have seriously considered calling CPS. :yuck:

YUCK!! GROSS!! NASTY!!! DISGUSTING!!! :yuck: :yuck: :yuck:

Ok now that I got that out of my system, I always make everything homemade for my homeschool group. I make sure to use my big Wilton cake pans for transporting cupcakes or other goodies.

I think for our Valentine's party I am going to make some cupcakes. I will just be adding heart sprinkles to the top and make strawberry flavor. I have no energy to be more creative. Kids are just getting over sickness and finishing antibiotics. I also have to make candy bags and get some prizes for the first, second and third place winner of the best Valentine container.

My son is making a castle out of boxes with a draw bridge. Also my daughter is making a garden box, with lots of flowers. My three year old Naomi made a Barney box, complete with stuffed baby bop sticking out from the top. My two year old is going to do a power ranger box. But we haven't started yet.
