what you need…
- A4 card folded in half
- cut out card heart shape
- blue tak
- pencil with rubber on the end
- pink, white and red paints
what to do…
- blue tak the cut out heart to the front of your card
- with your pencil, using the rubber end, dip it into the paint and print, repeatedly, using the different coloured paint, around the edge of the heart shape
- peal away the card heart which will leave you with the printed heart outline
- allow to dry
into a little dream adventure…
- this could be done with different shapes and colours depending on the theme or occasion
- with you child ask them what they would like to write inside their card, depending on their writing ability, allow them to explore letter formation and sounds
- together, talk about the person they want to send their card too and why they love them and what they think love is
- maybe find a peom, or write a peom with your child to put inside the card – children love rhyme, and exploring rhyming words
