This Tot School: Valentines resource has everything you need for a week packed full of valentines themed fun and learning.

My tot school weekly plans are designed with the 2-3 year old child in mind. Every activity can be used at home with one or more children or adapted for use in a day care/preschool classroom. Tot school is all about exploring and learning together while exposing children to a variety of skills and concepts.

Features:

• Pre-academic skills:
Counting, identifying numbers, patterns, colors, letter identification, language development, and open ended play

• Fine motor skills:
Painting, stamping, threading, cutting, sticking, gluing, tearing, and peeling stickers

• Gross motor skills:
Dancing, running, and balancing

• Week at a glance:
See all 25 books/activities for the week on one convenient page. Every week includes 5 books, 5 fine motor activities, 5 gross motor activities, 5 snacks, and 5 sensory bins along with a few other activities you may want to try!

• Suggested Materials:
Prepping for the week is super easy with this checklist. Round up everything you need for the week without having to search through each page of activities!

• Activity Pages:
Learning activity pages include everything you need to know to complete the activities for the week. Each learning category has a page with pictures, directions, materials, and goals so you know exactly what to do for each activity.

• Printables:
Printable activities and materials to make weekly prep a breeze! Lots of printable options to save you from purchasing additional hands on materials that you may not have available.
