(Almost) Valentine's Day
Read: If You'll Be My Valentine by Cynthia Rylant and Guess Who? by Lola Schaefer
Craft: Valentine's Collage
- Need: Sticky paper, hearts-a-plenty (can use heart cellophane bags and other scrap pieces -- oh and glitter). Scrapbook paper frame. (Bought everything at the $1 bins at Target!!! love it)
- Prior to storytime, cut-out strips of scrapbook to construct a frame. Set up each seat with sticky paper and frame.
- Again explained the concept of collage ....
- In the middle of each table place various bits and bops and have the children "have at it"
- I offered each child some red glitter as well -- applied by me for less mess!
- I improvised in the end, because the children did not cover the entire sticky surface. So, I applied a piece of copy paper to the back of each picture and instructed the children to write their names on the back of their picture.
