This is a great way to dye your Easter eggs this year (by the way, Easter is in 18 days!) for whatever reason matters the most to you: it’s a fun science experiment, you stay away from commercial dyes, it is cheap AND its just something new and different!

I posted this back in January, but wanted to do a “repeat” since it is now 8 days till V-Day!
Every day, we have been picking a heart from the tree and do something nice for the person whose name is on the heart. It could be a plate of cookies or just a quick email [...]

Supplies:

Yes, I am posting a Valentine’s Day Activity 30 days before Valentine’s Day. It’s ok to do that because it is a countdown tree.
