We are celebrating love all week long!!! Not only do I have some super fun Valentine’s Day activities for toddlers, we’re also extending the theme for the remainder of the week. Find out what children love, and you’ll find out what’s truly important to them. Use these love-themed activities on our letter V free printable to explore the world as your toddlers see it!
This curriculum is ideal for 2-3 year olds. We’ll be reinforcing colors and shapes and introducing letters and numbers. There will also be exploration of different themes each week as we proceed through the alphabet. It provides a flexible framework of activity ideas that can used in the home or classroom.

I Love You (The Barney Song)
I love you, you love me
We’re best friends as friends should be
With a great big hug
And a kiss from me to you
Won’t you say you love me, too?

And a kiss from me to you
Won’t you say you love me, too?

Literacy
V Page for Alphabet Book
Create a page for the alphabet book. Each page is blank except for the week’s letter. Children can be provided with an open-ended activity to decorate the page of their book. Or you can use the suggested activities to set up an activity to create the page. Once done, pages can be laminated and bound with spiral binding or rings. You can find a template for this book here.
