Happy Valentine's Day!

I love celebrating friendships in correlation with Valentine's Day.  We started our preschool Valentine party with an art free for all.  With access to all the paper, scissors, glue, markers, crayons, and sticker hearts the kids made Valentines for family and friends.

 We read a fun Valentine book and then passed out Valentine's to all our friends.  I LOVE how much the parents really help at home by having the kids practice writing their own name and sometimes even writing the other kids names.  I also love that our classroom community leads to them being able to read each others names and pass out their items with relatively little help.  Plus, these parents are super creative!  Way to go guys!  I'm fairly certain the kids thought this was the best day ever.

We enjoyed some cupcakes for a special snack time and the nice upper 60 degree weather we're having for a bit today.  Then we headed back inside to work on our reading and writing.  We had such a fun day filled with art and smiles, giggles and reading.  Have a great Valentine's Weekend!
