Let’s write a letter and send it in the mail. Discuss with the children about what writing a letter means. You may want to find some examples about what a letter looks like when written properly and show it to them. Then take a dictation as the child tells you what they want to say in the letter. At the end of the letter have the child sign their name. Of course this is a fun activity to do at anytime of the year but just around Valentine’s day is a neat time to send a letter to someone.

How can you be a helper to others just like the Samaritan man was a helper to the hurt man? Print and cut out the hand pattern and on each hand write a way that we can help others. You can always trace your child's hand if you'd rather. You can cut the hands out of different colors of construction paper or leave them on white paper. Have children come up with ways that they can help others. You do not need to cut out each hand perfectly, to make it easier you can just cut them out in a square shape. When you and your children have finished you can hang them up on a wall, the fridge or make a “Helping Hands” bulletin board.
If you'd like to expand on this activity you can have children carefully color their hands.

Today we are going to make a mail piece and pretend to mail it off! Gather a bunch of envelopes, stickers, writing utensils and paper for children to decorate and pretend to mail off. You can add a box/basket/mailbox for the children to put their envelopes in. This is a fun and open ended project for children to use their imagination with and to write some letters and pretend to mail them off.
