Unique Valentine’s Day gifts for kids – handmade with love from Etsy sellers and so sweet they’ll never miss the candy!


Candy Free Valentines Day Gifts from ETSY

Valentine’s Day is all about love – but does that mean it has to all about candy? No doubt your child will say it should be but since you know they will get candy one way or another (school, friends, grandparents), I think it’s perfectly reasonable to show your love with a sweet gift that won’t rot their teeth or have them bouncing off the walls.

    My kids would love to use these crayons! So sweet! I had a friend who handmade little bears with hearts one year, and they were a big hit with the kids. Candy is so 2014!

    Oh my goodness, I have never thought to look at Etsy for V-day gifts. I am not a big fan of candy for my daughter, I think Halloween is enough candy for the whole year.

      I know what you mean Nicole. Valentine’s Day is starting to look more and more like Halloween now that so many kids are including candy with their school Valentine’s Day cards.
