Valentine’s Day is a lovely time of the year. 

Maybe it’s the candy hearts with messages printed on them or Valentine’s Day card exchanges, or the sweet notes that come with chocolate, but it’s a wonderful thing to look forward to during the cold winter months. 

And since Valentine’s Day focuses on love it’s a great time to focus more on kindness and generosity and helping those around us. 

So to encourage even more kindness during February we use Valentine Kindness Notes that tell classmates and adults why they’re important to us. 

We use these Kindness Elves to inspire more Valentine kindness as we countdown to Valentine’s Day with this. 

And we also intentionally teach what is kind and what is not kind with this Valentine Kindness Kind or Unkind Sort.
