Celebrate With Your Kids

Show your sweetest Valentines some love with a card!

• Make a card for them. Or, if you aren't feeling creative, pick one out at the store and write a really special message inside. The cards by Papyrus are some of my favorites!
• The Paper Source has great holiday cards as well as a large assortment of both plain and printed papers to make your own!
• Make breakfast with pink heart-shaped pancakes (you can find the pre-made mix at Target) using a heart-shaped cookie cutter, or bake muffins in a heart-shaped baking pan.
• Bake something special for them, or decorate sugar cookies together with red, pink, or white icing and sprinkles.

Share the love!

• Help your kids make cards for their friends, or pick out fun themed ones at the grocery store. Since my son is obsessed with race cars, I picked out Disney Cars themed valentines that came with tattoos for him!
• Remember to pick your cards out early, as popular styles will sell out quickly!
• If your child has a boyfriend of girlfriend, offer to help them pick out special Valentine's Day candy and make a cute card for them to have as a keepsake.
• For your own significant other, try taking them out to a romantic restaurant, or make a special meal at home together.
