Activity: Down Around the Corner Flannelboard featuring felt heart cookies!
Down around the corner at the bakery shop
Were 5 heart cookies with icing on top.
Along came <insert name of kid> with a nickel to pay.
And they bought a heart cookie and took it away.
I gave out felt nickels to the kids so they had to pay me before grabbing a cookie off the flannelboard. One of the kids said he would rather just keep the money. Hilarious.
I'm so glad I found this on Mel's Desk because I use it a lot for story times when I need a flannelboard story quick.
It was so crazy during Toddler Time again this week, that I just have 10 felt brown hearts and 10 different colored heart felt "icing". I put the cookies on the flannelboard & gave out the icing, so the kids came up and put their icing on when I called their color. This was great since there are so many at Toddler Time and they all want a piece to put up at the same time!
What's in the Memory Box?
Race car! Egg! Tractor! ...... Every. Week. It cracks me up.
Me: Did we read stories about a race car today?
Majority of Kids: NOooooo! 1 or 2 Kids: YESSSS!
Me: Are you sure?
1 or 2 Kids: YESSSSSS!
Me: Seriously?
Guess what. No race car. No egg. No tractor. AN ELEPHANT!!!!
Craft: Bouquet of heart flowers!
My favorite thing about a Valentine's Day story time is buying valentines to give out to the kids. Its like I'm in grade school all over again!
