1. Little Love Fish
This card game is really fun because it tests our memory and attention.
The first step is to create cards with the theme of love.
To do this, you will have to draw symbols related to love to illustrate the cards - they can be hearts, kisses, cupids, hearts with arrows, rose petals; Then you need to photocopy the drawings made and cut them to the same size .
To start playing, you must mix the cards, place them face down on a table and, alternately, pick up two by two.
- If the cards match, a point is scored ;
- If they don't match, place them face down in the same place.
The player who manages to keep the most pairs wins.
2. Love Balloons
You can't resist balloons, nor when they are colorful and filled with hearts .
For this DIY you only need balloons and lots of paper.
To start playing, you will have to write different activities that are related to love on pieces of paper . For example, drawing a heart, an Eskimo kiss or giving a hug.
Then fold each of the pieces of paper, place them inside the balloons and inflate them.

How to Make Easiest Valentine's Day Cookies: Place the butter and sugar in a bowl, and beat well until combined. Add the egg and continue mixing until you create a homogeneous mixture. Sift the flour and cocoa and add to the previous mixture. Stir everything until a dough forms. Then we form a ball and set it aside. On a table or counter, place a sheet of parchment paper and the cookie dough on top. Begin to lightly crush the ball you formed and place another sheet of baking paper. Using a rolling pin, stretch the dough until it is about 5mm thick. Place the dough in the fridge and let it rest for 1 hour. After that, cut the cookies with a heart-shaped cutter and place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper and place in a preheated oven at 180°C for around 12 minutes. Remove and let cool. Melt the chocolate in the microwave or in a bain-marie and dip half of the cookies in the chocolate. Before drying, sprinkle with sprinkles. |
