Valentines Activities For Preschoolers

PRESCHOOL VALENTINES THEME

Create a Valentines theme for preschool with hands-on Math, Science, Sensory and more preschool activities.  Awesome for kids who aren’t always keen on the preschool Valentines crafts.  There are so many more fun things to do, besides creating a craft love heart.

Our preschool activities are designed with you, the parent or teacher, in mind!  Easy to set up, quick to do, most activities will take only 15 to 30 minutes to complete and are heaps of fun!  Plus, our supplies lists usually contain only free or cheap materials you can source from home!

Make sure to check out your local dollar store and craft store for fun additions to your activities. Many items can be saved easily from year to year! Store your goodies in zip-top bags in large totes!  You can set up each of these activities pretty easily and enjoy fun Valentine’s Day learning all month long.
