~Roses are red, violets are blue, if you have
heard this poem before, then you are part of this world too.~
A little poem humor to kick start today's blog posting, but seriously, poems are a wonderful way to express
how one feels. They are a creative outlet that allows individuals, young and old, to share their innermost thoughts and
feelings. With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, why not let your children
discover their inner poet, by creating their own Valentine's Day Poem. This will also
give your child an opportunity to practice their writing skills as well. You
could even create or use a pre-made Valentine’s Day spelling list, as words for
them to incorporate into their poem. Providing some poems for inspiration, for your child to read, is also another idea that you could do. Once you child has written their poem, you could let them have fun, by having them
read their masterpiece in front of the family; as if they were in a coffee shop somewhere on
stage :)
