EYFS Valentine’s Day tuff tray plan
This EYFS Valentine’s Day tuff tray plan is an enhanced provision activity based around a love potion theme, designed to support exploratory play, talk and hands-on learning in Early Years. The plan includes a clear list of supplies, quick set-up instructions and suggested prompts so children can lead their own learning while exploring mixing, pouring and imaginative play.
The Valentine’s Day tuff tray plan supports multiple areas of learning, including Communication and Language, Physical Development, PSED, early maths and Expressive Arts and Design. Children are encouraged to experiment with colour mixing, capacity, texture and scent while developing vocabulary linked to actions, position and feelings. The plan also highlights key outcomes and vocabulary to help you capture meaningful observations during play.
Use this EYFS Valentine’s Day tuff tray plan as part of your continuous provision or enhanced provision during Spring 1, or when planning a Valentine’s themed focus. It pairs well with other Valentine’s Day resources to create a cohesive, play-based learning experience.
