We have been looking forward to this day for a few weeks. For the past few years my students have invited a special someone into the classroom to help make gingerbread houses. This year, it seemed like the time from Thanksgiving to Christmas went by way too fast. I decided to switch things up a bit and instead of gingerbread houses my kiddos invited a special someone into our classroom to help with our valentine boxes. We had so much fun and I was so impressed with how they looked! Check them out below:







Just above is the table with goodies that we served our guests! My wonderful and talented sister-in-law did did the baking and decorating. She made gorgeous mini cupcakes, heart shaped brownies that were decorated and I made candies and chocolate heart shaped lollipops.
