Valentine’s Day & Hearts

In anticipation of Valentine’s Day, we have been taking part in Valentine’s themed activities and exploring the heart shape this week. For show-and-tell the children brought in heart shaped objects or wore clothes with hearts on them:

We made Valentine’s Day cards by glueing on heart themed ribbons. I asked who they were for and the children told me “Mummy and Daddy”:

In our role play session we played Valentine’s bakery!:

On Wednesday we brewed up some love potions!:

 

   

We also played with a Valentine’s and heart themed sensory rice tray:

 

And practised fine motor skills and following lines by making a pompom heart craft:

Next week’s topic will be… CARNIVAL & COLOURS!
