During the month of February all you need is a bag of candy conversation hearts and you can fill up the hour doing many different activities with them….
MATH- add, subtract, greater than or less than, sorting by colors, graphing the different colors, estimate- fill a small glass jar with hearts and let them guess how many are in it- then fill a big one and let them try again
READING- read the messages on the hearts
WRITING- have your child grab five hearts from the bag. Use the sayings on these hearts and write a short story together OR cut out your own hearts and let them come up with new sayings to write on them
CRAFTS- Use craft glue and glue candy hearts around a glass votive
HANDS ON– Use the hearts to build a tower…see who can make their tower the tallest OR hide the hearts all around the room and have a Heart Hunt together!
