Boo and I don't do Valentines Day activities every day but we have been doing some off and on during the past couple of days, here are some of the things we have been doing........
I hole punched some foam hearts for Boo to string onto a pipe cleaner.
She wasn't able to do it because the pipe cleaner wasn't sturdy enough for her.
I tried to help her by holding the pipe cleaner straight but she insisted on being miss independent!
She tried for a long time, I was surprised to see how much patience she had during this activity.
Eventually she was able to do it all on her own!
Next I gave Boo some of the same foam hearts but without the holes, some white glue and a paintbrush.
I showed her how to spread the glue on the paper with the paintbrush and push the hearts into the glue to make a collage.
Boo really enjoyed this activity, especially gluing over the hearts after they were already placed!
She also liked pushing the hearts into place.
She asked for more glue a lot by pointing at the glue bottle and saying ahh ahh.
I think she liked the glue more than anything in this activity!
Boo didn't like the feeling of the glue on her hands too much though.
Wow! What a beautiful Valentines Day Collage....now time to wash the hands.
After washing her hands, Boo enjoyed a yummy Valentines Day snack!

Love it! We will be gluing hearts this week or next too :) I really like the foam heart with the pipe cleaner idea. I might use that next week. I will link back if we do use it :)
