While Valentine’s Day is typically seen as a day for couples children like Valentine’s Day too. That makes it a great day to do something special with your kids. Here are some ways to make it fun for the entire family.
Have a special tradition with your kids–every year my husband takes our daughters to a local Daddy/Daughter dance so I use that time alone with my son to take him out to dinner at a restaurant of his choosing. It is a great way to have some quality time with my oldest, especially now that he is growing up into a young man.
Make a special meal for them–not able to go out? Then make a special meal for them with all of their favorite foods.
Let them get crafty and make Valentine’s for their friends–sure you can buy Valentine’s at the store but why not let the show off their creative side and put their own special touches on with these Color Your Own Valentine Printables.
