It is that time of year – Valentine’s Day. I always try to incorporate holidays and current events into our learning. It is a great way to capture the kids’ interest. My boys are starting to get the age where Valentine’s Day isn’t quite as cool, but they are always up for a way to make everything more enjoyable.

Holidays bring an array of resources that help to shake up the monotony. Games, experiments, letter writing or all natural extension for holidays. Since my kids don’t naturally love Valentine’s, I did some searching and found some great Valentine’s Day STEM Activities for you.
