We are so excited over here to start Valentine School on Monday! I hope your kiddos are excited too!
Did you miss Christmas or Winter School? Are you wondering how Valentine School will work?
It’s a simple way to add some FUN & intentional quality time into your homeschool days! I put together a calendar for February – it has 14 daily themes based on how we can love others. If you haven’t grabbed it yet, you can scroll to the bottom of this post, drop your email, and I’ll send it over!
The day before each special day, I’ll drop a blog post right here for that day….it will be full of printables (they will be FREE but for that day only), activity ideas, themed snacks, educational video links, and more.
You’ll also want to join our FB group here, if you haven’t already. I will always post the blog post links in this group too.
The main goal of Valentine School is to help your kids get excited for their school days and to inspire a love for learning! It’s also a great way to spend some intentional time together. ❤️
Valentine School Bundle PDF
Do you want to download and print EVERYTHING at once? You can grab this 102-page activity PDF bundle if you don’t want to wait on me to upload everything individually! 🥰 There are few bonuses in the bundle too, including the chance for your kids to enter a Valentine School giveaway at the end of the month!
If you’d like to flip through the bundle, even to just get an idea of what’s to come this month, you can watch me flip through the entire thing in this video below!
