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 book – Bananas For You by Sabrina Moyle and Eunice Moyle of Hello Lucky Kids.
It is such a lovely book with a wonderful message and amazing illustrations. I really enjoyed reading it to my boys and they can’t get enough of it.
We created a DIY tic tac toe activity to go with the book. Niko enjoyed coloring the cardboard banana pieces and putting googly eyes on them.
