Super Note: My 3 1/2 year old son had so much fun doing this Valentine’s Day craft that he actually hugged and thanked me after for setting up this project. I don’t know if it was the quality time he spent with just me (and not his baby brother tagging along) or probably because he just had so much fun with all the paint and the fact that I allowed him to use the entire bottle of glitter glue! Either way, both of us enjoyed ourselves. We did make some super cool rocks that really sparkle and shine. You should try it out for yourself.
