 From Cupid to heart-shaped candy and cards, Valentine's Day is a day for sharing tokens of caring and affection. This program explores the history behind Valentine's Day and explains how certain traditions came to be associated with love and the rebirth of spring. Modern ballet dancers show how their art is used to portray different emotions, and children learn how to make a heart flower centerpiece to give to someone special. Part of the multivolume Holidays for Children DVD Series. A teacher's guide is included and is available online. |
"  ... this long-awaited video series which introduces children to holidays in America and around the globe is highly recommended." - Video Librarian (Jan/Feb 1995)"The series explores and explains the symbols, customs, rituals and folklore underlying our major holidays...Public and school library collections will be enhanced by this contemporary look at these celebrations...an excellent introduction for young children." - School Library Journal (Feb 1995) "...this series recognizes the spiritual roots and secular customs of each notable observance. These are welcome videos that don't revisit the well-trod paths of other holiday titles." - Booklist (March 1, 1995)
