Valentine BINGO

I've used BINGO games as review games when I was a Classical Conversations tutor. I've also used them with my own children in our homeschool when we would have a day that just needed some fun inserted in it. 

This Valentine Bingo will be the perfect addition to your February activities - or even good for a Valentine party. 

Add the game to one of the 16 Sweet and Simple Valentine Activities and you're good to go!

Or, how about some Valentine books - with a super cute Valentine idea and printable to go with them? 

(Can you tell I love Valentine's Day?)

16 Sweet and Simple Valentine Activities

Do you celebrate Valentine's Day?

There are good reasons to do so - with ALL ages!  (Remember, I'm a huge proponent of keeping the wonder alive in your children at any age!)

The best reason is being able to sneak a few more memories into our children's memory banks. You can even sneak a little homeschooling in between the Valentine and candy swapping.

In order to increase the fun factor and minimize the schooling factor, keep it sweet and simple with these fun activities.

Keeping Valentine Activities Simple with Preschoolers

Little hands and chubby fingers brand new to holding crayons need simple activities. They crave hands-on type fun. Getting messy might be at the top of their list. Move beyond coloring pages and busy worksheets. Try out some of these simple activities that are sure to bring out sweet smiles and giggles.
