Hey, friends! Are you looking for some fun, FREE Valentine’s Day activities that will keep your kiddos engaged and LEARNING this year? I’ve got you covered! In this post, I’ve rounded up some of our very favorite free Valentine’s Day activities for your toddlers, Preschoolers, and even Kindergarteners! Let’s go!


free counting cards
1-20 Counting Cards

If you’ve been around The Stay-at-Home Teacher for long, you know that we have loved these counting cards for YEARS! Our now 5yo LG was just a squishy little toddler with I snapped this photo of her using these with her Valentine’s Day mini erasers! Squeel!

To use this activity: Guide toddlers and early Preschoolers in counting and covering the dots with their favorite manipulatives, like pompoms or mini erasers! If you’re working with older Preschoolers or Kindergarteners, practicing comparing amounts/numbers and number order using the cards!

Preschool Valentine’s Day Freebies

These FREE Valentine’s Day-themed activities are SO fun for adding a little extra academic practice to your Valentine fun! You’ll find them in our Free Resource Library right here on the blog! Included in this set are THREE freebies! Choose from a color-by-code activity for identifying the letters Ff-Jj, a Valentine’s Day-themed color sorting mat, and a candy numbers activity!

The candy numbers activity is probably my favorite because it’s SO versatile! To use this activity: Choose a number card. Identify the number with your littlest learners. If they’re ready, use candy (or other less sugary manipulatives if you choose!) to build the correct amount OR even build the number itself! Older kiddos can put the numbers in number order, choose number cards to build and compare amounts, or use the number cards to build addition and subtraction problems. There are SO many possibilities!
