Do a fun activity with your little ones that includes counting and number recognition this Valentine’s Day.

My preschooler has been loving her numbers and we have been working on counting and number recognition each day. I figured for Valentine’s Day we should have some fun with this activity and add some construction paper hearts.

All you need is:

Construction Paper

Scissors

Hole Puncher

Marker

Directions:

Cut a large heart out of your construction paper repeating this step 10 times. You can make more hearts but, we only made 10.

Then, cut the heart down the middle with a zig-zag line.

Write the number on the left side of the heart and then hole-punch on the other side. If you have the number 4 then write the number 10 on the left and then hole-punch 10 circles on the right side.

Do this for each heart and number each heart 1 to 10.

Once each heart is complete scatter them around and have your child match the number side to the hole punched side.

They will be so happy they completed the task. While having fun they are learning and that is a great activity in my book.

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY

and happy learning through our Numbers and Hearts Matching activity.
