This is the time of year for hearts everywhere, so why not use heart shapes in learning?
This little activity form Growing Book by Book is a great way to work on sight words with kiddos. Pick words they need an write them on hearts. Let them collect them and check out her blog post for activities that kids can do with the hearts.
You can even do a scavenger hunt for the child to collect all the hearts, then use the in the game she describes. Or combine with other ways to work with sight words like spelling in rice or another sensory material, having kids write the words or spell out with alphabet magnets.
