While these things are definitely hallmarks of the holiday many around the world celebrate today, they don\u2019t tell the whole story. This year, help your little one understand the meaning behind this love-filled day in a new, fun way!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The ancient Romans, the Christian church, and multiple people with the name Valentine all influenced the holiday we celebrate today. Over time, the celebrations of these ancient people spread to countries around the world, including the United States. Soon, Valentine greetings became commonplace and the holiday became all about celebrating love!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This year, celebrate the special occasion with your little one by not only showing them you love them, but also letting them show love to others! Allow them to call or FaceTime a grandparent or special figure in their life or even make a card to send to show them how much they care.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Love may be a hard concept to explain to your preschooler, but the easiest way to show them what love is all about is through your actions. Make this Valentine\u2019s Day extra special by doing something with your little one that is out of the ordinary! Whether you make a festive breakfast together at home, take them to get a treat after preschool, or play one of their favorite games with them before bed, your love for them can be shown in many different ways this year by giving them your time!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Valentine\u2019s Day doesn\u2019t have to be all about the mushy-gushy type of love. This year, help your preschooler understand the different types of love we celebrate on February 14<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">th<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">!\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you enjoyed this blog and want to read more, click below for our blog from last month!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kidsrkids.bvbeta.com\/riverstone\/2020\/01\/10\/resolutions-for-your-family-and-preschooler\/\"><strong>Resolutions for Your Family and Preschooler<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>kids &#8216;r&#8217; kids riverstone preschool program<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"wp-image wp-image--no-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/kidsrkids.bvbeta.com\/riverstone\/programs\/preschool-childcare-program\/?utm_source=PreschoolBlog&amp;utm_medium=banner&amp;utm_campaign=L\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-190000000261\" src=\"https:\/\/kidsrkids.bvbeta.com\/riverstone\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/190\/2020\/05\/KRKrs-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>Kids &#8216;R&#8217; Kids Academy of Riverstone knows exactly how curious your preschooler is because of her ever-evolving love for exploring &#8211; even when it comes to fun things like learning about holidays.
