Songs and Rhymes About
​Valentine's Day
(back to Holiday index)

Here is a collection of the words for some songs and rhymes that coordinate with the  popular early childhood theme Valentine's Day,  and can be used when planning activities and curriculum for Preschool, PreK and Kindergarten children.
Make new friends, but keep the old
One is silver and the others gold.
 
 Will you meet a friend of mine? 
Friend of mine? Friend of mine? 
Will you meet a friend of mine? 
This is my friend _____________. (Fill in Name)
 

The more we get together, together, together
The more we get together, the happier will be.
For your friends are my friends,
And my friends are your friends,
The more we get together, the happier will be.

Climb a ladder, oh so high
Climb a ladder, oh so high
Climb a ladder, oh so high

Love Somebody, yes I do
Kiss and a hug 'cause I love you!
 
 
You're my rainbow,
You're my star,
You're my bright red cookie jar.
You're my goldfish,
You're my pie,
You're the apple of my eye.
You're my daisy,
You're my vine,
You're my own true Valentine!
 
(Tune: I'm a Little Teapot)
I'm a little valentine,
Red and white,
With ribbons and lace
I'm a beautiful sight!
I can say, "I love you"
On Valentine's Day
Just put me in an envelope ,
And give me away.

Pink piggy, pink piggy,
What do you know?
The sun will shine and the wind will blow.
The grass is green and the sky is blue,
And pink piggy knows that
I LOVE YOU!

My sweetie pie, my sweetie pie,
I'll love you like birdies love to fly,
I'll love you like babies love to cry - 
If you will be my sweetie pie.

Oh sweetie pie, my sweetie pie,
I'll love you like spring and blue butterflies,
I'll love you true and never say goodbye,
If you will be my sweetie pie.
Pretty please?
