We are getting very excited about Valentine’s Day over here! We love celebrating Love and what better way to celebrate than with some Valentine’s Day Science Experiments!
Before we get into all the great ideas, I want to share a sample of my Family Unit study with you: Valentine’s Day School!
In Valentine’s Day School, you’ll learn about topics like symbolism, love languages, how Valentine’s Day is celebrated around the world, and all about Esther A. Howland, the Mother of the American Valentine. You’ll also dive into fun, hands-on projects that cover a wide range of topics.
Want to take a peek inside? Grab these FREE Printable Valentine’s Day Cards that also include a sample of Valentine’s Day School. The cards will be emailed to you instantly, and you’ll be brought to the How Wee Learn shop so you can take a closer look at Valentine’s Day School. Get yours here:
