February is such a fun month for one reason... VALENTINE'S DAY!! If you're a kid this means valentines including lots of candy! However, if you're a toddler this can mean anything from a valentine card to fruit, goldfish or those wonderful pinterest ideas we all love! For this specific week we celebrated Valentine's Day by decorating treat bags with markers and Valentine stickers! At the end of the week, we got to pass out our Valentines! :) During the week, we used a heart shaped cookie cutter to make hearts out of play dough! The kids LOVE playing with play dough! We also worked a lot on using a glue stick! We glued different color tissue paper onto a heart that said "I love you to pieces." I also took a white crayon and made hearts on a white piece of paper and the kids used water colors to paint over the hearts so they would appear! For our sensory activities, I put pink, red, white and gold paper shreds in the sensory bin so the kids could go crazy getting everything messy!
For circle time, we continued to do our usual welcome songs, weather song, ABC song, and even learned a new song called "Skidamarink." This is a cute and fun song about love! We also used our ipad to listen to other "Love" songs! We read our daily Bible devotions and learned about Jesus' love for everyone! During our large motor time, we played in the gym and played a lot of basketball! We also even were able to sneak outside on the playground on the pretty days! Take a look at our LOVEly week and stay tuned to what's in store next!
