Valentine Present for Gramma

I had the pleasure of my four year old granddaughter's company over the weekend and we celebrated Valentine's Day by making "Valentine Pops."

 

 

It was a fun time for both of us as this was the first time Bebe spent time alone with "Gramma at the Beach" as I am known in the family!

We played games, watched "Cat in the Hat" and did some creative artwork plus made the Valentine Pops.

Here is the recipe - you will need:
Marshmallows
white chocolate
Lollypop sticks
sprinkles or as some call them jimmies
ribbbon (optional)

Melt the white chocolate in a double boiler - Bebe put the sticks into the marshmallows and I had a bowl of sprinkles ready for her to dip into.  I took the marshmallows on the stick and put into the hot and melted white chocolate and coated the tops and partial sides of the marshmallows and then handed them off to her to be coated with the sprinkles.

 We think they turned out beautiful and by then, my sleepy princess was ready for a story and bedtime.

God grants us a special and deep love for our grandchildren and bonding with our grandchildren is one of the greatest joys of Grandmotherhood.     

P.S.
Sorry it has been so long since my last post - I hope to be back and seeing more of my blogland friends very soon.  Healthwise I am doing very well - God is SO good!
