Letter V for Valentines Day Toddler Activities

1.29.2014

At first I wasn't sure what kind of theme I could weave into our Letter V Tot Activities-- vehicles and vegetables just didn't seem interesting to me and then I realized we were coming up on Valentine's Day in a couple of weeks!  We don't put a big emphasis on the "holiday," but I just love all the pink and red so it was the perfect theme.

Here's what Little Sis worked on:

Tot School Letter V Activities

Heart Do a Dot with heart gems

Little Sis didn't really get into this tray very much. She did place a couple heart gems onto the do a dot sheet, but she was more interested in cutting apart the cards-- which I didn't want her to do and was too late stopping her from doing.

After seeing this activity over at You Are the Roots, I made a special $30 shopping trip just for these items.....

Baby Brother (13mos) enjoyed this activity much more.

V is for Vase Craft

We assembled an alphabet craft using cupcake liner flowers.

This activity had plenty of fine motor practice built in.  We used cupcake liners for the flowers and I had Little Sis use scissors to snip around the edges to make petals.  Little Sis put the heart foam sticker in the middle of the flower and finally used a glue stick to glue everything down.
