Valentine's Day ideas for kids!
Of course, nothing is better than CHOCOLATE!!! But not all children like chocolate, and too much of anything is never a good time.
Since the twins started school, I have been that parent who wants to be involved in all the things and provide support and appreciation for their teachers (another reason why I have resigned, being a teacher is in the way). Last year, we made candy bags for their classes. But this year, I want to do something different.
Hopefully, my readers are experienced with creativity and being the “classroom” parent and can share some of their ideas. But for now, here are some ideas that would be great “surprises” for the your babies and their classmates.
Check out the Amazon affiliate links below! Also, leave comments with some new & fresh ideas that I can try with the twins!

Although these cards are not red or pink and full of the typical Valentine’s Day designs, these will be a great way for your kids to write a nice note to their classmates to show that they care.
These are a little more traditional, but can be given to both girls and boys. I mean, who doesn’t love puppies!!!

Brach's Valentine's Day Tiny Conversation Hearts, Friendship Exchange, 1 oz Boxes, 24 Ct
For some people, these are staple Valentine’s Day candies. They are cute, small, and sweet! And it is a great way to practice reading. Of course I always try to incorporate fun ways to learn new words.

Some times at schools, the classroom teacher will allow parents, caregivers, or volunteers to come into the classroom and do activities with the kids. Creating these airplanes will be a simple activity that can be done with kids of all ages.

As previously stated, I always like to incorporate reading and learning in new ways. Reading aloud to a group of kids is a great way to get them interested in reading. The following titles are great selections for the month of February.
