So my kids get a ton of candy for Valentine’s Day so I went on a hunt for some fun Valentine’s Ideas that don’t include candy or sweets. I got all the ideas from Pinterest and you can click through each one to get directions to make them yourself. If you are not a member of Pinterest you can the directions by clicking on source under each picture. Leave a comment with your favorite!
Love this cute owl and you can find Valentine pencils at the dollar spot at Target.

Love this one with the bouncy ball. Ever kid I know loves bouncy balls. You can grab a Rubber Bouncing Ball Assortment (25 pc) for $11.94. They should also be available at dollar stores.

This is one of my favorites. Wonder if I can talk my girls into making these. I have seen glow sticks in the Target dollar spot or Amazon has 100 8″ Glow Light Stick Bracelets (colors may vary) for just $8.85! You can save the rest you don’t use for outside fun.

I think this one is super cute too. These little animals can usually be found at dollar stores too! Or you can get 60 Learning Resources Jungle Animals Counters for just $17.26.

These would be an excellent way to use up all those broken crayons from your home.

I saw one on Pinterst this year that I plan on using – you buy a box of the tiny mandarins or clementines and glue a little note on them that says “Orange you glad we’re friends?” LOVE all the healthy ideas!!
Thant sounds cute! I will have to look for it.
