Last month Lindsay’s Tea Party threw an extraordinary “Tiny Valentine’s Tea”! This tea party was special because it was created for approximately 25 preschoolers! I found the perfect 1/2 cup teacups in various floral patterns, heart shaped doilies, tiered trays and tiny teapot placecards.

In order to fit the flavor of my young guests, I decided to serve apple juice which looks very similar to the appearance of actual tea, however offers a flavor most 4 & 5 year olds enjoy and are accustomed to. Busy Bee Valentine's Tea at Preschool 2-2016 010

The menu included tiny heart shaped sandwiches filled with peanut butter and jelly or turkey and cheese (minus the crust of course). Paired with fresh fruits such as strawberries, raspberries, and red grapes, all coordinating with the red/pink pallet for Valentine’s Day.

Also served were heart shaped buttermilk scones, strawberry jam and lemon curd, with whipped cream (tinted pink). Busy Bee Valentine's Tea at Preschool 2-2016 012

Desserts included heart shaped rice krispy treats (a popular preschool favorite), mini muffins, frosting decorated cut out cookies with sprinkles, powdered sugar white donut balls, and a mini teapot shaped cookie as their favor wrapped for later! Busy Bee Valentine's Tea at Preschool 2-2016 018
