I can’t believe it is nearly Valentine’s Day!
My husband and I don’t spend money on each other on Valentine’s Day. We are fairly fortunate in that my parents live fairly close to us and we are given many opportunities to spend quality time with each other throughout the year. It is for this reason that we don’t see the need to do something on Valentine’s Day when everyone else is.
I do, however, spend this time with Megan, identifying our loved ones and the qualities they possess that makes us know we are loved by them. (Not that this is the only time we do this 😉 )
Megan is old enough now to appreciate these qualities and identify them.
She worked with me to create this card for her teacher. She identified the qualities which lets her know that she is loved by her teacher. I had to help her with some of the vocabulary, but her descriptions made it easy for me to know which quality she was referring to.
I then typed it up for her and she cut out the hearts and then reassembled them to make a two-tone heart on the card. We went with pink and red to go with the Valentine’s Day theme, but you might want to choose a different color scheme.
I also included a blank heart if you would prefer your students/children to think of their own qualities. Megan also struggled to assemble the heart on her own – it was fairly tricky once all the pieces were cut up, so I printed a page with the puzzle pieces marked on the card to make it easier to build the puzzle for her. This is also included in the set.
You can download the card here for FREE if you would like to do it with your students or children.
I hope you can make use of it and have as much fun as we did.
