Valentine's Day Circle Time | Songs & Literacy Games

Bring Valentine’s Day songs, word play, and movement into preschool circle time. Children can clap syllables, explore Letter V words, sing together, and join in with seasonal games and brain breaks.

Start with a song and the printable pieces, then play Who Is Missing? or Where Is ___? before bringing out the brain-break cards for a quick movement reset. Choose the activities that fit your group and keep the celebration going across several circle times.
