Chocolate Play Dough – Make play dough using your favorite recipe. Omit the food coloring and let the children knead the dough in cocoa. It will look and smell like chocolate. Purchase a box of valentine candies and remove/eat the candies. Children can roll up the dough and put them in the paper containers.
Chocolate Peanut Butter Dough – Mix 1 cup smooth peanut butter, 1 cup chocolate icing, and one cup instant milk in a bowl. Give each child a heaping spoonful. Let them mold chocolates and wrap them up in plastic wrap. This makes a special gift for their parents.
Valentine Sandwich – You will need a heart shaped cookie cutter, bread, cream cheese, and red food coloring to make this sandwich. Mix the cream cheese with red food coloring until it is pink. Cut a heart out of the bread with the cookie cutter. Spread on the cream cheese.
