Heart Shaped Targets

Items Needed:

Targets (New or used)

Scissors

Take a used (or new) target and cut it into a heart. To challenge yourself you can make the targets into different sizes and assign each size a different point. Each target you hit you receive points! We recommend having 4 to 5 different sizes.

Heart Hanging Targets

Items Needed:

Pipe cleaners

Ribbon

Wooden dowel

Scissors

Take two pipe cleaners and bend them into the shape of a heart and twist where they meet. Make sure to twist them far enough so they don't untwist while on the bale. Next, attach the ribbon to the top of the heart and cut about ten inches of ribbon and then attach the ribbon to a wooden dowel. Last take the wooden dowel and stick it into a bale.
