Howdy! Welcome back! Today we read one of my favorite beginning of the year books, Chrysanthemum by Kevin Henkes. It has become a fav of the kids too. Many of them said they have the book at home or their kindergarten teacher read it to them. I told them that's why books are so special. No matter how many times you read a book, each time is like opening a gift. This time we were going to really think about the main character's feelings and the author's message. As we read the book, I passed around a large paper heart. Each time Chrysanthemum was teased because of her name, we crumpled up the heart. Every time someone did something nice to her, we tried our best to smooth it out. By the end of the story, the heart was a wrinkled mess that could not be smoothed out perfectly. The kids got the connection that our own hearts feel wrinkled and crumpled sometimes when we don't like what someone says. Words do hurt. We then tried to put bandaids on the heart as a way to show that we can own our mistakes and apologize. The heart will probably still be wrinkled, but it is healing. I, then had the kids do a mini version of this in their Reader's Response Journal. Always Use Kind Words! You can find this activity along with a few other things to do with this amazing book if you click here! Including the little heart poem in the center: Before you speak, Think and be smart. It's hard to fix a wrinkled heart. Here's to Happy Hearts! Joyfully! Nancy

Give a little piece of your heart to loved ones this Valentine's Day with my Easy Crochet Heart pattern. They're quick and easy and a great way to say I love you! I have an Easy Crochet Heart pattern for you today, and these are fun because you can add them to gifts, embellish hats, scarves and gift bags, make garlands and brooches, or pop one in a card for your loved one. I've tried many heart patterns over the years, and this one is quite easy and a mash up of a few different patterns. I've included lots of links and tips, so you feel supported along the way - even if you haven't crocheted before. It's a good pattern to practice and master a lot of the basic stitches you use in crocheting. They take around 15 minutes to crochet and you need to know the following stitches: Magic Circle Ch: Chain Stitch SC: Single Crochet HDC: Half Double Crochet DC: Double Crochet TR: Treble SS: Slip Stitch Click on the links to see how to work the stitches and the Magic Circle. You can use whatever yarn you want and choose a hook size to suit. Just remember the finished size of your heart will be bigger or smaller depending on the yarn ply and the hook size. For these little hearts, I used an 8ply cotton yarn, a 3.75mm hook and they finish around 2 1/2 x 2" - super cute and sweet! OK, let's crochet: Round 1: Make a magic circle, Ch 3, work into the ring : 3 TR, 3 DC, Ch 1, TR, Ch 1, 3 DC 3 TR. Ch 3 and pull the magic ring tight but not all the way, and SS in the centre of the ring. Tips: don't pull the ring too tight at the end of the round as you will need to SS rounds 2 and 3 into the centre of the ring. There is a Ch 3 at the beginning and end of each round to help shape the heart and you skip these as you work the next round. Round 2: 3 ch, skip the 3 ch from R1 and in the first stitch SC and HDC, 3 HDC in the next stitch, 2 HDC in the next stitch, SC in the next three stitches, SC in the chain space, Ch 1, DC in the top of the TR from R1, Ch 1, SC in the chain space, SC in the next three stitches, 2 HDC in the next stitch, 3 HDC in the next stitch, HDC and SC in the last stitch, skip the 3 Ch from R1 and SS in the centre of the ring. Tips: it's important not to forget those Ch 1 stitches either side of the bottom DC. I've marked them in bold so you remember! Ensure the tail of the magic circle is out of your way when slip stitching at the end of the round. Round 3: Ch 3, skip the Ch 3 from R2, 2 SC in the first stitch, SC in the next stitch, 2 SC in the next stitch, SC in the next 8 stitches, SC in the chain space, SC in the top of the DC from R2, Ch 1, SC in the chain space, SC in the next 8 stitches, 2 SC in the next stitch, SC in the next stitch, 2 SC in the last stitch, skip the 3 Ch from R2 and SS in the centre of the ring. Tips: don't forget the Ch 1 at the bottom of the heart, this helps with the shape. I've marked it bold so you remember. Ensure the tail of the magic circle is out of your way when slip stitching at the end of the round. Finishing: Cut yarn and tie off. Pull the magic ring tighter. Bury your threads securely. You can use this Working Away Yarn Ends Tutorial for help. Block your heart to flatten and shape. You can use this Blocking Tutorial to achieve the best results. And that's it! I will warn you, they are addictive and you'll have a pile in no time. I hope you enjoy crocheting these Easy Crochet Hearts. They're super cute and I'm sure you'll find tonnes of uses for them. I'm hanging mine on a tree branch Valentine's Day tree which will be the centre piece of our dinner table. Have fun! PIN FOR LATER: Happy crocheting :)
