Valentine’s Day is an especially exciting holiday for young children. Your preschooler will likely be excited about a class Valentine’s Day party, themed activities at school, or even bringing valentines for their classmates, but Valentine’s Day can be celebrated at home, too! Starting traditions with your preschooler this Valentine’s Day is a great way to create lasting memories surrounding the holiday. Here are a few ideas of Valentine’s Day traditions to start with your preschooler.
Make Valentine’s Day Crafts
Making crafts is always a fun activity for preschoolers. You can get out the construction paper, markers, glue, and scissors, and help your preschooler decorate valentines. Or, you can keep it simple and mess-free with coloring pages until your child is old enough to participate more in this tradition. These crafts can even become special Valentine’s Day keepsakes!
Create a Valentine’s Day scavenger hunt
A scavenger hunt is very exciting to any child! Hide some hints around the house with each clue leading to another. (For a preschooler, these hints can be as simple as a slip of paper with a drawing of a fridge, which leads to the fridge.) At the end, hide a little Valentine’s Day treat! Your preschooler is sure to feel like a pirate or adventurer solving their scavenger hunt! As your child grows, the scavenger hunt can grow in complexity.
Make homemade Valentine’s Day decorations
A house decked out in painted heart decorations and red and pink garlands is a house full of love and creativity! As the years go by, your child will treasure time spent creating more and more handmade decorations with their parents.
No matter how you choose to celebrate, Valentine’s Day is a great opportunity to show your preschooler how to express love for their friends, family, and loved ones. Starting a tradition this year will help create a lifetime of love and joy for your child!
