Writing Valentine’s Letters
Create a small mailing station for your child. Provide some supplies like paper, markers, stencils, pencils, crayons, stickers, craft tape, and anything else you think your child would use for a letter.
Letting your child write a letter to a family member or friend can be a homeschool learning lesson. You can teach your child how mailing a letter works by sealing it in an envelope, writing the address it is going to, placing a postage stamp, and dropping it off at the post office.
It is a simple way to create a homeschool lesson and teach your child practical life skills.
