Help your child show love this Valentine's Day
| Human interest |
Kids love Valentine's Day. I mean what's not to love?
Most classrooms allow the children to exchange colourful cards or different sweets. Some teachers even set aside time for a party during class time. This year during the Valentine's season try taking time to teach your child while participating in all the fun.
Here are a few ways you can make your child's Valentine's Day more memorable:
- Make Cards as a Family: There are many quick and easy crafts kids can do to make a special card for family and friends. Grab construction paper, stamps, stickers, markers - pretty much anything you already have laying around the house - and let your little one's creativity flow. Not only will this give them an activity to keep them busy, it will give them a chance to feel a sense of accomplishment.
- Give your child the opportunity to show compassion to another child: Valentine's Day is the perfect chance to teach your child love for others, especially for those less fortunate than themselves. By logging on to charitable websites like www.ccfcanada.ca you can browse the online gift catalogue and help your child send chickens, a food basket, or even a school uniform to another child suffering in extreme poverty in a developing country. It will be something different that allows them to think of and feel compassion for others.
- Bake Valentine's Treats for your Child's Class: Kids love helping out in the kitchen whether it's mixing cookies or decorating pre-made sugar cookies. Allow your child to help you out in the kitchen creating a treat to share with their friends at school. Not only is it great family time, but it allows the child a chance to take ownership of the treat they offer to their friends. www.newscanada.com
