Five Awesome Valentine's Day Activities for Preschoolers


Love Letters

An array of white envelopes with CVC words written on them and heart shaped letter tiles used to spell the words, all attached to a wall.

Practice spelling and reading familiar words or letter and sound recognition using envelopes and a set of alphabet tiles or manipulatives. Attach the materials to a wall to create a vertical activity for extra physical development benefits! (Need the supplies? Check out my February is For Hearts Preschool Learning Pack!)


Love Notes

A tray of craft and writing supplies laid out on a table next to the book Words To Love By.

Create a craft and writing station with the supplies necessary for children to write kind notes to friends and family members. Whether drawing pictures, scribbling, or writing simple words or phrases, spreading love and joy to others through writing is a great way to encourage fine motor and early literacy skills!


Cupcake Counting

A sensory bin with red-dyed chick peas laid out next to cupcake-shaped cutouts and number tiles as a learning invitation for preschoolers to count and write their numbers 1-10.

Combining sensory play with counting is a great way to encourage early math skills! Of course, you can easily adapt a learning invitation like the one above using any sweet treat, sensory bin filler, and number cards. Plus you can differentiate for skill level to focus on larger numbers, adding, subtracting, or any other mathematical focus! (Want the printable materials now? I've got you covered with this heart-themed resource!)


Love Potions

A muffin tin with baking soda and vinegar dyed with purple and pink food coloring to create fizzy mixtures.

Preschoolers love investigating cause and effect, chemical reactions, and building their fine motor skills through fizzy play! Baking soda, vinegar, and food coloring are all you need to create bubbling potions that early learners will enjoy engaging with over and over again!


Heart-Themed CVC Word Sorts & Practice

Diverse illustrations of children holding hearts with CVC word family endings on them laid out next to word family picture and word cards for children to sort.

Give your emergent readers the chance to practice reading in a hands-on, thematic way that is engaging and fun! Whether sorting words by word family, listening for onset/rime, differentiating using the blank template, or working on spelling and writing, this resource is a favorite of mine! Preschoolers and teachers love the vibrant colors and inclusive images in this resource that can be used all month long.
