WE JUST LOVE PRESCHOOL!!!

This week will be our Valentine party week. Each child should bring 9 Valentine cards to exchange with friends, and you may also bring special treats for snack time. Our Bible story this week is the Good Samaritan and how he showed kindness when others passed by. We will sing This is My Commandment, I've Got the Joy, ABC Song, 5 Little Ducks, and I'm a Little Valentine. I am trying to incorporate nursery rhymes into our lessons, and this week we will do the Queen of Hearts poem with a picture to look at. To go with that, we will decorate Queen/King of Hearts crowns for Valentine's Day. During our opening time, we will move with our pink heart balloons and bubbles. Our Blue Table will have Valentine stamps to decorate cards from the kids to Mom and Dad.

Storytime this week will include "My Somebody Special" about animal kids in a preschool and their excitement at the end-of-the-day reunion. "Guess How Much I Love You" is about Big and Little Nutbrown Hare who compete for loving the most. "Happy Valentine's Day, Mouse" is about the "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" mouse and his special day.

We are excited about the forecast this week, and we may venture out to our playground. It may be a bit muddy, so please dress your child accordingly.

Have a Happy Valentine's Day and share God's love,

Mrs. Shelly
