For my grandsons, I also plan to write out a fun valentine's activity we may do together or one which they may do with their mom and dad, such as make cookies, draw hearts, make heart-monsters or play "I-love-you-hide-and-seek" . . . when you find the hiding person, you have to tell them why you love them! Simple, fun things which will help build memories with your grandchildren and communicate your love for them. Every few days, I also plan to include something which involves them in showing love for others - because real love "flows" . . . from God to me to them to others. I'm sure we will have important conversations about how we are able to love others because God loves us and then think of ways we will show our love to others . . . giving kisses to mom and dad, making a heart card for their Sunday School teachers, making cookies to give to great-grandma and great-grandpa . . . etc. I want their love to grow . . . this happens when they not only receive love, but also give it away!
Have fun with this with your grandchildren!
