Happy Valentine's Day!

Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

I think you're canny
Wey aye, pet, it's true!

So, we had a think about what happens on February 14th and what Valentine's Day is. Some responses were - 'It's when you tell someone you love them', 'You give people cards and something nice' and 'You could draw a picture for someone you love'.

We then talked about someone we love, why we love them and what we could do to show them we love them. Children decided that saying something kind, asking them to play with you, giving them a hug or simply telling them you love them are all good ideas. 

We stuck tissue paper to both sides of two heart shapes and said whose name we wanted written on the heart - Mam, Dad, brothers, sisters, cousins, grandparents. Each child then said why they love that person. We are so blessed with people who love us - people who make delicious food for us, give amazing hugs, make us laugh, give us Saturday morning cuddles in bed, play with us and help us! The hearts then joined together to form a hanging decoration.
