I was running out of time in trying to find some educational Kindergarten Valentine’s Day activities that Big Red could do. I turned to an old standby website that I have used many times before, Making Learning Fun!
I looked up some Valentine’s Day printables for letter recognition, Math, and Literacy activities. I found exactly what I was looking for. A simple V shaped worksheet for dot-to-dot markers works great with dot stickers instead!
A quick and simple activity is to grab a dry erase board and marker. Then ask your child to write an H or V or draw a heart. Big Red was able to do all of those without seeing them. I told him how he could turn his V into a heart and he did!
I had magnetic pom-poms from another activity and set it out with one of the free printables from Making Learning Fun placed on top of a magnetic board. Another fun fine motor activity. The wooden pattern block sheet was from Confessions of a Homeschooler. I printed and laminated the entire alphabet a few years ago. Both Big Red and Lil’ Red love them!

I love the idea of using stickers on a dot-to-dot printable – less messy than markers and still develops fine motor skills.
