We didn't have an actual Valentine's Day party in either of my classes, but we did pass out Valentines! I like to make mine :) This year, I happened to find some cute little dinosaurs at Target in their Valentine section. I washi-taped the the dinos to some scrapbook paper and wrote "I think you are dino-mite!" on each card. They turned out pretty cute and the kids were excited about them!
Onto things kid's said today. . .
"When is your baby gonna have her birthday?"
Probably near the end of April- on the day she's born.
"Can I come to her birthday party?"
No- I think it's going to be just me and Mr. McElwee at her birthday this year.
"Only two people?! Why is her birthday gonna be so small? Cuz she'll only be zero?"
Yep :)
A little girl found a box of chocolates in her backpack. She took the box out and said it was for me and my assistant to share. About half way through the day, she told me that she was going to give a chocolate to each of the kids who are being good (there were probably 4 chocolates in the box). Near the end of the day, she almost started crying and said, "I made a mistake! That's my box of chocolates. It's not for you. I think my papa gave it to me!" The chocolates went back into her backpack :)
I got a lot of, "I love you, Ms. McElwee!" and a few, "I love you, baby!"s
We made cards for the kids' families. They made handprint hearts on the front, toilet paper tube stamped hearts on the inside, and copied the words "I LOVE YOU!" onto a piece of paper that we glued into the card. I think it's hilarious that one little girl wrote the word "yawn" on her card. We're learning about the letter Y this week and she knows "yawn" starts with a "y". She asked me how to spell yawn and before I knew it, she had written it on the front, inside, and back of her card! Haha!
Happy (almost) Valentine's Day!
