I really, really REALLY enjoy celebrating the holidays with my family. Any excuse to spend more time or money on them is a good one! Valentine’s Day is no exception, but sometimes kids can get overloaded with candy, and I am not a HUGE fan of candy. It’s messy, no nutritive value, expensive and bad for the teeth. But, I know it is a fun part of childhood, so I let my kids indulge once in a while, and of course I enjoy some good, quality dark chocolate at times too!
Since people will be giving my kids candy for Valentine’s day anyway, I would rather invest in non-candy gifts for them. Gifts that will last a little longer than an hour and that let them know I am thinking of them. If you’re a non-candy mom, this list will be perfect for you!
