It's OK to have a secret crush

Have you ever had a secret crush? Some kids were very scared or shy to admit they have a crush, so that made us want to find out even more!

We interviewed 83 kids in the fourth- and fifth-grade classes at our school to find out. Here are our results:

Yes, I've had a secret crush: 25

Never had a secret crush: 58

Kids who did have secret crushes said that it was someone who is in their class. We think that there are even more kids who have a secret crush but they didn't want to get teased by their classmates.

We say: Don't be afraid if you have a secret crush. You are not the only one. It's the circle of life. Happy Valentine's Day!
