Valentine's Day
Introduce children to Valentine's Day, a day for friendship, hugs and telling those you love how much you care about them.
Here are some great stories and a few basic informational books to help.
Be Mine, Be Mine Sweet Valentine
Porcupining: A Prickly Love Story by Lisa Wheeler
This book isn't specifically for Valentine's Day but would be a sweet story to read aloud to a child at that time. It is the story of Cushion the porcupine who lives in a petting zoo but because he is so prickly, he never gets any petting. Poor lonesome Cushion takes to serenading others but he has no success until. . . he meets Barbara the Hedgehog and they both find their happy ending !
