Valentine’s Day 2/11/2010

Opening song

Enter disheveled, confused. . . carrying too much stuff. Forgot what holiday’s here. Pull out scarves mixed in with stuff from other holidays (Christmas, Easter. . .) Have them guess the holiday.

We put the red heart in, we take the red heart out We put the red heart in, and we shake it all about We do the hokey pokey and we turn ourselves around. That’s what it’s all about! (We put our blue heart in/out, we put our red heart up/down, we put both hearts up/down) Hearts away, hearts away, let’s all put our hearts away!
 * Sing: Hokey Pokey **give each child a red and a blue heart on a popsicle stick
