Make a Valentine's Day Countdown Calendar

valentine's day kiss countdown board

It’s so hard to wait for holidays when you’re a kiddo, which is why reader Gina from East Coast Mommy created this Valentine’s Day Kiss Countdown Board with stuff from her dollar store. Well actually, her three boys made it! They used posterboard and a KISS sign from the dollar store, as well as heart-shaped felt stickers and Hershey’s Kisses. Great idea, and a fun activity for kids. Thanks for sharing this with us on our Facebook page, Gina! [full instructions to the kiss countdown board]
