Fun and Meaningful Ways To Spend Valentine’s Day With Your Preschooler

at Kids ‘R’ Kids Oakbrook, preschool, daycare, childcare

Are you looking for a fun and meaningful way to spend Valentine’s Day with your preschooler this year? There are many fun and creative ways to celebrate this special day with your little one. Here are some Valentine’s Day traditions to start this year with your preschooler. 

Make Valentine’s Day cards

Making Valentine’s Day cards is a fun activity that your preschooler can help with. Gather some supplies such as construction paper, markers, glue, and glitter (if you’re feeling brave!) and have your preschooler help you decorate cards for family and friends. Not only is this a fun way to show your preschooler how to express their love, but it’s also a great way to practice fine motor skills. 

Make a Valentine’s Day breakfast

Your child may be spending part of Valentine’s Day at preschool, but that doesn’t mean you can’t share a special moment with them before they must be dropped off. Making a special Valentine’s Day breakfast for your child doesn’t have to be complicated – heart shaped pancakes can be made by pouring pancake mix into a heart cookie cutter! Or, if your child is not usually permitted certain breakfast foods, surprise them with sugar cereal or donuts for this special occasion! This will make your preschooler feel special on this holiday, and will start their Valentine’s Day off on the right foot. As your preschooler grows older, this is sure to be a tradition you can continue to celebrate even as your days get busier and busier! 

Have a Valentine’s Day movie night

Put on a family-friendly Valentine’s Day movie and snuggle up on the couch with some popcorn! Will You Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown? is a classic, or you can try out some other love-filled favorites, like WALL-E or Gnomeo and Juliet! This is another tradition that is easy to adapt as your child grows older. 

Starting traditions with your preschooler is a great way to create lasting memories and a great opportunity to show and example your preschooler of how to express love to their family and friends. Starting a tradition this year will be sure to have lasting positive effects throughout your child’s life.
