Toddler
Songs / Rhymes: “Good Morning”, “Hello, How Are You?”, “Open, Shut Them”, “If You Love Me and You Know It”, “If You Have a Red Heart” game, and “The More We Get Together”.
Craft: I Love You Valentines. Materials: die cut construction paper hearts in red and pink, die cut construction paper hands in purple, crayons, glue, and tape. The toddlers glued their hearts together and then glued on their hands. When they were finished, their caregivers folded down the middle and ring fingers of the hands so that they said “I love you” in American Sign Language. The idea came from The Best Kids' Crafts and More.
Special Activity: I gave every child a different colored heart. When I sang the name of the color, the children with that color heart brought it to the front of the class to give to me.
