An Activity for Preschoolers:

Make a special box or bag to collect valentines!

Before You Begin:

Be aware that some cultures do not celebrate particular holidays. Make sure all the children in your group are able to participate before doing this activity as a group project.

Activity Goals:

To make a personalized receptacle for holiday greetings.
To express individuality and creativity.
To experiment with collage and creating art with collage materials.

Furthermore:

This activity can also be done as generic activity, not centered on a holiday. Have the children make “love boxes” or “friend boxes” and place them on a shelf in the room. Whenever children would like to leave a fun note or picture for other friends in the classroom, they can place the note in that child’s friend box.
