Customized Valentine Puzzles

I don't know about you, but I like to plan ahead.  So, it completely annoyed me when I stopped in to Target last week to look at Valentine's Day stuff, and they didn't have it out yet!  We have to look at Christmas stuff the week after Halloween, but only get a few weeks for Valentine's Day?!  Ridiculous.


So, for the other planners, here is a great idea I came across for your kids, husband, friends... anyone!  How about a free, customized puzzle that incorporates words and clues from your relationship?  (puzzlemaker.discoveryeducation.com)  Simple to do, and FREE!  You can't go wrong with that.  I made this one for my husband...

I entered the title, the words I wanted to use, and the "secret question", and thewebsite created the puzzle.  They also have other kinds of puzzles.  I'm going tomake one for my puzzle obsessed kid too.  You want to know what I really love about this?  I don't have to spend a bunch of time looking for a five dollar card with someone else's words on it!  It's from my mind and my heart only!

If you make one, can you let me know how it goes?

  3. Elissa, We are very anti-Valentine's day too. Jim saw this, and said "But we never do Valentine's Day!" He said I'll have to give it to him another day.
