Cute Non-Candy Valentines Day Ideas for Kids - Greater Austin Moms


 

Candy and cards are a classic combo for class Valentine’s gifts, but with more school’s broadening food bans (from peanuts to wheat to, in some cases, all sweets), non-food related choices can be a safer bet. Even if your school is still cool with candy, other parents will likely appreciate the variety.

These adorable beach toys are the perfect thing to give with spring break just on the horizon.
