Book 1: Foxy in Love by Emma Dodd
Fingerplay: “Heart”
I put my hands together,
This is how I start
I curve my fingers right around,
And I can make a heart!

Rhyme: Open, Shut Them
Book 2: Froggy's First Kiss by Jonathan London
Rhyme: Little Heart
I have a little heart, (place hand over heart)
And it goes thump, thump, thump (pat chest 3 times)
It keeps on right on beating,
When I jump, jump, jump (jump 3 times)
I get a special feeling when I look at you. (point to group)
It makes me want to give you a hug or two. (hug yourself)

Rhyme: I Wiggle My Fingers
I wiggle my fingers,
I wiggle my toes.
I wiggle my arms,
I wiggle my nose.
I think that the wiggles
Are all out of me
Now I can sit down
And hear a story.

Song: If You're Happy And You Know It
Book 4: If You'll Be My Valentine by Cynthia Rylant
Closing Song: The More We Get Together
Craft: Valentine Card Buddies
This is one of the easiest projects that I've ever assembled. You'll need a deck of cards, heart shapes, hole puncher, glitter glue (optional), pipe cleaners, pencils or lollipops.
