I plan on celebrating Valentine’s Day by teaching about heart health. The American Heart Association has a plethora of lessons for all different grade levels. I am asking parents to send in heart-healthy treats for Valentine’s Day to avoid the abundance of sugar in the room. My students in the past have loved the fruit more than the sugary treats!
