Valentine’s Day Songs for Preschoolers

A brief history of Valentine’s Day

Even if the history of this celebration is still uncertain, it is believed that it all started back in Roman times when Emperor Claudius II outlawed marriage for young men.

The Emperor believed that married men were more cautious on the battlefield. And he only wanted brave soldiers in his army. Despite this law, as it is natural, young men were still falling in love and dreaming of a family.

Fortunately for them, a priest named Valentine was brave enough to defy the law and put his own life in danger. Valentine kept celebrating marriages in secret.

Unfortunately, the priest’s secret was revealed and he was sentenced to be terminated. According to records, he was terminated on February 14th.

To honor the priest’s memory and courage, the Catholic Church made Valentine a saint. Nowadays, February 14th has turned into a global celebration of love and friendship. 

Did you know that:

  • Celebrating Valentine’s Day is a custom that is more than 600 years old?
  • People used to send ‘Vinegar Cards’ on Valentine’s Day to turn away unwanted suitors?
  • Valentine’s Day is the second most popular holiday to exchange cards (obviously, right behind Christmas)
  • Millions of Valentine’s Day cards are exchanged each year?
  • Red roses are considered the symbol of love. There’s no wonder that red roses are the most gifted flowers on Valentine’s Day?
  • Alongside red roses, heart-shaped chocolate boxes are people’s favorite Valentine’s Day gift?
