Love & Learning is in the Air!

We've been keeping busy with lots of Valentine activities!

Yesterday we made hand-print flower bouquets - too cute!



Today we finger-painted on a big heart with red and white paint to make pink. Then we sprinkled it with strawberry Jello - smelled delicious and made beautiful red sprinkles on our hearts!







We also made a Valentine treat today! Heart Tarts! All we did was roll out pie crust dough and cut a bottom heart with a cookie cutter for each child. Then everyone spread their dough with strawberry jam.



We layered on another heart, with a smaller heart cut out, and crimped the edges with a fork.



Then we sprinkled sugar over the top.



After we baked them, they were beautifully golden brown.



And delicious!



We've also been practicing our counting. We made a heart collage with 13 heart shapes!



And the letter W has been our letter of the week. Yesterday we colored cute little watermelon slices!



And today we worked on some W actions... like Walking...



Pulling a Wagon...



Wiggling...



Acting like a Worm...



Swimming in Water...



Being Window Washers!



The big kids Worked hard in the Workbooks, too!





Tomorrow - More Valentine's fun!
