An Enchanted Childhood Playschool ~ February 12th-16th ~ Valentines Week

Valentine's Week

Two favorite book's from Hannah's childhood!
Hugs and Kisses
and the cutest "I love you" hands around!


 The "bingo" markers are always a big hit!




Friday, we made a special craft with some canvas and red paint...



Then the children used the left-over paint and some toilet paper rolls to stamp hearts!





One of our mamas sent a special treat!


We have started a new Friday tradition: Friday Fun Food!
(known as muffin tin meals or use up what's in the fridge!)

This week's offering: brocooli and cheese sauce, organic peas, organic cherry tomatoes
organic carrots and ranch, little slices of baked parmesan chicken, and organic chick peas



The "twos and threes" playing happily together!


Be sure to check "Our Favorites" book-widget on the right.  You will find our weekly books there!
If you click through to Amazon and purchase a book, I will earn a commission.
I haven't received any money yet, but there is always hope!

  3. Hi! I found you through the Show-and-Share Saturday Link-Up. I am looking forward to exploring your site more. :o) It looks like lots of fun!

    I love the little hands craft that you have in this post. I usually make a similar craft with my storytime friends around Mother's Day. Here is where you can find it ~ if you are interested. It is a Mother's Day gift that is only a few more steps: http://librarystorytimeabcs.blogspot.com/2012/05/storytime-craft-dont-forget-i-love-you.html

    Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!

  15. Bingo markers are fun for kids, especially when they want to do dot painting. I hae a book and make a handprint of each of our grandkids every Christmas, to see how much their hand has grown throughout the year.

    You've got some great ideas here, I enjoyed reading through.
