Virtual Volunteers
Valentine’s Pets & Crafts Workshop
Cost:$5
Recommended for grades 3-6. Younger children may require assistance from parents/guardians.
Join us on Zoom to meet Woods Animals & help us make and deliver Valentine’s goodies to them!
Together we will make these Dog & Cat Valentine’s goodies: A fleece no-sew stuffed heart toy/pillow, heart dog/cat Valentine’s card, no-bake dog heart treats.
We will use mostly household items that you might have around your house (supplies listed below).
For those who need community service hours, we can sign off on 2 hours for the workshop and give you ideas for more pet toys you can make and donate to Woods!
Craft Supplies you will need:
- Two 9 X 12 inch pieces of fleece fabric (or felt or an old t-shirt or towel)
- Scissors
- Pen or pencil
- Stuffing or extra scrap fabric to fill the heart
- Optional heart stencil
