So I got the teachers candles so I can use the same tag. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-2061323 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 15:54:36 +0000 cascademom 2061323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@aegie: We've been with our center for about a month, so we're new to this. I got them some boxes of chocolates along with valentines. I figure it's a nice gesture since we're new parents to the classroom. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-2061322 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 15:54:17 +0000 littlebug 2061322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got a box of Valentine's for like $2. I plan to do something additional for the teachers, but only because Friday is also his last day in the 1yo old room and I want to thank them for being so awesome. I am thinking about getting them a mug with a packet of hot cocoa and a card saying "You warm my heart." </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-2061304 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 15:47:03 +0000 aegie 2061304@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>what do you do for the teachers? My LO got the list too and it included the teacher's names so ... just a valentine's day card? We were planning on doing goodie bags for the kids. Should I give something for the teachers too? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1414745 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 13:58:18 +0000 sheskrafty 1414745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: Great tip about the bubbles!! DH would be super impressed if I managed to get all her school friends a v-day gift for under $5. </p> <p>I figure I can give the teachers chocolates or something small. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1414711 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 13:52:59 +0000 Smurfette 1414711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sheskrafty: my friend just bought bubbles in the summer section at target for her sons class. Said they were bigger then the VDay ones and were 4 for $1.99. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1414539 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 13:18:35 +0000 sheskrafty 1414539@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MUI831: Stickers, bubbles or playdoh are all great ideas. Thanks!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1414516 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 13:14:55 +0000 Mommy Finger 1414516@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought Vday cards and a pack of playdoh. Our daycare just told us how many kids were in the class and to not bring in food. They suggested stickers, bubbles or playdoh. I thought the stickers and bubbles were still too young for the toddler room so I went with playdoh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1414084 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 11:23:21 +0000 sheskrafty 1414084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@adira: Thanks! Looks like I'm heading to Target tonight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1414050 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 11:13:54 +0000 Adira 1414050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sheskrafty: I have nooooooo idea! I ended up just getting some cheap Valentines Day cards from Target to give out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1413997 Tue, 11 Feb 2014 11:01:25 +0000 sheskrafty 1413997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ack! I just saw a Valentines List this morning. I was going to get each kid a food pouch like applesauce but after reading this thread that is probably a bad idea? I would assume they could take them home and they teachers would not feed it to them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406762 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 09:54:20 +0000 Adira 1406762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@char54: That's a good point! That's probably why they did it! Thanks!</p> <p>@yoursilverlining: Mine didn't mention anything about food, but they're all infants, so I HOPE no one provides food... and if they do, I hope they don't give Xander any since he does have allergies! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406664 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 09:37:20 +0000 Bao 1406664@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You don't have to, but how fun would that be!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406650 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 09:35:21 +0000 edelweiss 1406650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>for that age, i think it's optional, although i was thinking of giving cards to the teachers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406616 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 09:29:13 +0000 autumnlove 1406616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally optional! I hope my center gives me a list...I think I will take a picture of the sign in sheet tonight so I can get the names! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406600 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 09:26:18 +0000 LuLu Mom 1406600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's fun, I love these things. I think stickers are always fun! I'm giving out big light up bouncy balls with a note that says "You make my heart BOUNCE!" but they are all quite a bit older though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406498 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 09:01:55 +0000 purrpletulips 1406498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When DD was in daycare, they exchanged Valentines but that was it. They did it as a sharing activity. DD is now in preschool and they asked that she bring in Valentines to share but asked that unless the child could read the other kids names to just put "To my friend" on them, Both the first time and this year we are going to get Valentines from a local restaurant where they get a free kids meal, the cards are like 8 for $1. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406480 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 08:57:19 +0000 yoursilverlining 1406480@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our center gave us a list of names but stressed in the email that passing out cards was totally optional. The biggest thing they said was not to bring in any candy/food item, even wrapped stuff - but they are very strict on food since there are kids with allergies. </p> <p>We got some paper Elmo "thanks for being my friend" type cards and stickers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406459 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 08:51:26 +0000 MsLipGloss 1406459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our center asked the parents to bring in cards for all of LO's classmates (they are having a small party). I was/am excited for LO to get Valentines!</p> <p>I just picked up a cute pack of cards from Target . . . I think it cost maybe a couple of dollars. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406454 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 08:49:15 +0000 Charm54 1406454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As a teacher I send out a valentine list not to tell parents to hand them out, just so that if they do, they can be sure they include everyone and there isn't one or two students left out who get no valentines. So I would say you don't need to do valentines , but if you do, be sure to include everyone in the class :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406436 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 08:41:17 +0000 Thenetexan 1406436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DS MDO requested photo cards (which you can do fairly cheap at CVS). I am excited about it because he loves looking at the holiday photo cards of the friends he knows. I think it will be great to have a picture of everyone from his class. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406287 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 07:50:18 +0000 Adira 1406287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mkp17: Yeah, I agree it does seem young, but it'll probably be cute to have all those cards! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406283 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 07:49:28 +0000 mkp17 1406283@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours sent a note saying that we should bring a certain number of valentine cards with DD name "signed" on it (not with the names of the kids in the class). I thought they were a little young (infant room) but I guess it's cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406248 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 07:15:25 +0000 Adira 1406248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: hahaha, that's how I feel! Though I have a whole week to figure something out, so I probably shouldn't be stressing too much about it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406244 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 07:11:38 +0000 looch 1406244@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: Last year was our first winter at the center, we literally got the list the day before, I think there was confusion with my parents who do drop off and pickup, so there I was, running out at dinner time to get the cards, because I didn't want my son to be the odd man out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406240 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 07:09:45 +0000 Adira 1406240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: haha, thanks! I think that's probably what I'll do! Xander loves business cards, so I'm sure he'll love those little Valentine's Day cards too!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406239 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 07:09:10 +0000 Adira 1406239@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: I'm not sure if they are having a party or not!!</p> <p>@dc yoga bee: @Smurfette: @Dandelion: @littlek: Thank you! Maybe if I have time, I'll just pick up some cute Valentine's Day cards for Xander to "give out" but I probably won't go overboard! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406238 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 07:08:33 +0000 looch 1406238@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You can get the box of cards for $1 at a drugstore...that is what we did last year. My son carried those cards around until they were shreds, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/daycare-provided-valentines-class-list-need-to-give-out-valentines#post-1406232 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 06:56:48 +0000 littlek 1406232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We give out valentines.
