Making Valentines for college students

Instructions:
Get a group of 30 elementary-aged kids. Let them know that we will be making care packages for the college students. Explain that the students who are now in college used to be in the after-school and summer programs just like they are.

Take a bowl of marshmallows and heat in the microwave.











Stir the rice krispies and fruity pebbles into the marshmallows.








Dump the mixture into the heart shaped pans.











While everyone else is making the rice krispy treats, form an assembly line so you can get all the boxes addressed to our 26 college students.




After pressing the rice krispy in the pan and before putting it the box to send off, show off the rice krispy heart for the camera.

Hey Janet,

You know, these kids are just beautiful.

I tutor down at the Trinity River Mission and I think the same thing--these kids are just beautiful--every time I'm over there.
