There is all kinds of valentine making going on today. So much glue and glitter really sets my heart a flutter! I LOVE this time of the year. The children are excited almost as much as Christmas. The thought of making and giving a token of ones affection is so much fun.
For our part, we've designed a few different ways in which the children can create and give either to a friend in our extended family at Maple Tree or a loved one at home. We will be setting up our mail box tomorrow to receive our cards and notes to be shared on February 14th. We are choosing to have each child make one valentine and place it in our mailbox and each one will get one valentine in return from the mail box. I love how this works and how special a project this has become. Not to mention how much easier it is over sorting valentines for all our children at the school. Less is definitely more!
great idea!
