When I was at Dominick's on Sunday, I saw they were selling the hot cocoa cones pictured above, but with a twist...they added heart shaped cinnamon red hots on top of the marshmellows. (I think they were selling them for around $5!)
It got me thinking how this could be a cute Valentine's treat for your child to bring into school. Hole-punch a regular Valentine and tie it on to the top when you tie off the hot chocolate cone. (You could even use red ribbon to make it prettier! Most craft stores sell ribbon with hearts on it around this time of the year.)
Not only do their friends get a Valentine, but they also get a treat to enjoy when they get home. And with the way the weather's been, hot chocolate will hit the spot! Brrr!! It might also be something for a Bake Sale, if your school is having one.
Here's my original posting on the hot chocolate cones.
