Valentine’s Day isn’t a huge preschool holiday but it is fun to focus on love, friendship, and hearts in the middle of winter. Here are the must-have things you need to make Valentine’s Day at preschool fun and engaging at preschool!
Valentine’s Books
Some GREAT Valentine’s Day books. It’s not too late to get these on Amazon and even if your school doesn’t celebrate Valentine’s Day you can choose one about love and friendship from this great list.
Valentine Sensory Play
Play Dough – look at all the fun you can have with play dough!   This gluten-free chocolate play dough is my daughter’s favorite and it’s SO easy to make. If time is short grab some pre-packaged play dough and make fun conversation hearts like the ones linked below.
Here is the link for the full post for these great conversation hearts!
