Posted by Michelle Dempsey, Book Specialist on Jan 25th 2016
What do you call a very small Valentine? A Valen-TINY!
Ah, young love. Do you remember how exciting Valentine’s Day was in your early Elementary school days?
The handmade cards… the conversation hearts… the BOOKS?
If you search for children’s Valentine’s Day books, you’ll find there really are plenty of fish in the sea. So consider our Book Specialists your Cupid, as we have narrowed down the top three love-filled reads for your preschoolers, Kindergartners, or early-elementary school students.
Think Elementary school kids are too young to talk about the National Day O’Love? Well, we believe it’s NEVER too early to talk about love! Children are always thrilled to discuss the people or things in their lives that fill their hearts, which sets the stage for a whole range of love-themed activities to fill your school day this February 14th.
Here are 3 books sure to win the hearts of your tiny learners:
A spinoff of Laura Numeroff’s If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, this tale follows Mouse as he celebrates Valentine’s Day with all of the people he loves most. Use this book as an introduction to the holiday, or just as an addition to your Valentine lesson plans, and you’re sure to have students as crazy about this book as Mouse is for his cheese!
Pete the Cat: Valentine’s Day is Cool
James Dean puts a savvy spin on the day of love with this Valentine addition to his Pete the Cat series. Pete the Cat starts out thinking Valentine’s Day isn’t so cool, until he realizes how many “cool cats” he’s got in his life. This read will have all of your students saying, “Be mine” to all the cool cats Pete falls in love with.
Happy Valentine’s Day, Curious George!
Curious about whether or not your students will make the connection to the February 14th festivities? With the famed Curious George series helping to spread the love, young book lovers will fall head over heels for this fold-out flap book of George and his crew causing lots of trouble on the quest to have the best Valentine’s Day ever!
With these Valentine’s Day books for kids, you will watch your students fall truly, madly, and deeply for yet another genre of reading!
Be well, Read well.
