I use the internet all the time for inspiration and guidance from professionals all around the country. This year I stumbled upon this fabulous idea for a family project connected to Valentine's Day. It is to create a Valentine's Box. I sent home a pink flier explaining what you should do, but in case it got lost:
Here's what you'll do! Find a box (about the size of a shoe box-some examples were made out of soda bottles) and turn it into something amazing! Paper mache, paint, paper, glue, glitter... A house, animal, character who your child loves, anything!
While I am opposed to real kindergarten homework, a collaborative, creative, fun project is right up my alley. You should leave a spot for cards to be put into the box and maybe even a hatch in the back to get everything out after our card exchange.

It will be really fun to see all of the different ideas when we celebrate on the 13th. If you have any questions, I'm always here!
