Celebrate Valentine’s Day with a Valentine book and combine it with a fun tic tac toe book play.

This post is in collaboration with Hello Lucky Kids. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

We celebrated Valentine’s Day with a fun tic-tac-toe game featuring this super cute Valentine’s book, ‘Bananas For You’ by Sabrina Moyle and Eunice Moyle of Hello Lucky Kids.

This charming book is a true delight with its heartwarming message and captivating illustrations. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it to my boys and their insatiable enthusiasm for the story only adds to its magic. The puns and humor, coupled with the incredible artwork, has made this book a cherished addition to our collection.

We crafted a DIY tic-tac-toe activity to complement the book. My kids had a blast coloring the cardboard banana pieces and adorning them with googly eyes.
