For a Valentine's Day treat, I write each of my children a love letter on poster board using strategically placed packages of their favorite candies to help convey my message. I use tape to block out any letters or words I don't want on the wrappers and change them to fit in my sentences. For example, I might use a Junior Mints box to say "We were _mint" to be together." The more I do these candy-grams, the more creative I get with the words. My kids get a kick out of the funny messages--and of course, love the candy too! --Susan W., Westerville, Ohio
