So we have been… for the last month, at least!

Its not always just about the hearts though.

We can’t forget about all the learning we’ve done for with our Valentine’s activities either!

Those candy hearts are full of learning potential for preschoolers with the letters and words on them!

    These crafting activities are perfect and super cute! Might I share what I’ve learned as well? Kids love projects even more if there’s music or an audiobook playing in the background. I downloaded some lovely stories for free.
